Huge credit to the @StenaLine staff in the Taste restaurant onboard #StenaHollandica’s sailing on Monday evening who dealt tactfully and calmly with one of the rudest customers I have encountered #DankU | #ThankYou

Huge #ThankYou to everyone at @walesairshow who helped reunite our very worried friend with their lost daughter and did so much to turn it into a happy experience for the children

Terrified and inspired in equal measures by Mary Gagen’s and
@IoloWilliams2 ’s engaging talks on what we can do to help wildlife @TaliesinSwansea
last night #Diolch | #ThankYou

#Diolch | #ThankYou to @tfwrail’s amazing Julie at the #Swansea ticket office who saved a #Dadventure from the #Dadsaster I’d created by accidentally booking tickets to travel next week rather than this

(#ThankYou too to our fellow passengers who this will have delayed)

#ThankYou @GWRHelp for holding the 09:20 Cardiff Central - Reading so those of us travelling from Swansea could join it - you may have just saved Christmas (well our first festive family gathering)!

[HAV & RAV @HAV_and_RAV]

Huge credit to @tfwrail for introducing #Class231 trains to Wales’ network. We’re proof that #UniversalDesign benefits everyone. Please continue the rollout so every journey can benefit from #LevelBoarding

#ThankYou to the lovely @cadwwales staff at #CaerleonRomanFortressAndBaths who found space to keep our bikes safe as we toured the site. We loved how the sound and video brought the baths to life

#ThankYou too to the wonderful guide in the Housekeeper’s Room who helped Lily find her calling. Unfortunately she was born 100 years too late to follow her new dream of being a Still Room maid!

[HAV & RAV @HAV_and_RAV]

Rose v impressed with @NTTredegarHouse as she had the option of vegan cheese on her baked potato. Here’s hoping the house and garden can sustain this impressive start! #ThankYou

[HAV & RAV @HAV_and_RAV]

It did! Rose declared the Gilt Room as ‘bougie’, although she was worried it wasn’t big enough for a serious party

[HAV & RAV @HAV_and_RAV]

#ThankYou to everyone @Pb_Railway who made our visit so lovely, but particularly to the cafe staff who revived Rose and fuelled our cycle down to Newport

[HAV & RAV @HAV_and_RAV]

#ThankYou to the amazing @BigPitMuseum guide leading yesterday’s underground tour at 11.30. Lily and Rose couldn’t wait to share all they’d learned when they got back to the surface

[HAV & RAV @HAV_and_RAV]

Finally #ThankYou to the brilliant barista @AcademyPlatfor1 who made me a second oat hot chocolate when I decided to throw the perfectly brewed one they’d just handed me across the pavement outside
