3 things that people forget to do on Twitter that will affect your engagement and results:
1. Not being consistent
2. Not engaging with others eg Thanking a person if someone RTs you.
3. Not talking about others or helping others.

🎺 Delighted that my colleague @cathmartingreen has awarded the Blanchardstown Brass Band €12,000 in funding for new music equipment.

The Brass Band has been a cornerstone of our community for close to 200 years.

@cmount1 I must have a look. Haven't been in Killeen area in a long time. My cousin's farm is adjoining the bog. Good to see this.
