I'm a Dad to Charlie and Leo, husband to Jo. I love friends, family and making happy memories. And I play piano and conduct shows and stuff.

@SW_Help @JGrimes46628 Please make sure this is reported. This happens all the time, and it’s intensely frustrating for those of us who go through this almost every day. Communication is everything!

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@SW_Help It lasted all day. Unbelievable. I had to work yesterday - you closed Waterloo and put a skeleton service on, and you can’t even run that?

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@SW_Help Can you explain why, due to a ‘summer timetable’ there are only 2 ridiculously overcrowded trains from West Byfleet to London Waterloo between 8-9:30am. Do you think everyone gets to take July/August off or something? Some go on holiday, everyone else works. It’s awful

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@SWRRLY What is going on? Summer timetable means just 2 trains in from West Byfleet to Waterloo between 8am and 9.30am. For the WHOLE SUMMER. Not everyone can go on holiday!!! This is ridiculous

@CityWestminster who is responsible for digging up Bedford Street in Covent Garden last weekend, and then just leaving it like this ever since? No explanation, no-one around working all week. In what other job could you do something like this and be so unaccountable?

@USGBUpdates I think they would go for a Bourne Stuntacular similar to US Orlando, in that it’s indoor, cheaper to maintain (ie no water) and utilizes live stunt actors.

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@DigitalStag @USGBUpdates Bond is owned by MGM (now part of Amazon), so very unlikely. It’s a good idea though!

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@USGBUpdates @CafeFantasia It’s not as bad as you think - we watched it recently as ‘research’ for our recent USH trip. The film was quite good, and the live show was great!

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@italkmusicfilm @USGBUpdates Perhaps I’m wrong, but we do have hot summer days in this country, and whilst we have cold wet weather the rest of the year, many theme parks in the UK have water rides - LEGOLAND, Thorpe Park, Alton Towers etc. I’d love to have a wet ride even if it is seasonal!

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@DMTWestEnd Just take the show off sale, fix the issues, and set another date for sale? I’m giving up. Its been 3 hours

@SW_Help Trains are not running normally. They are delayed all over the place. Hopefully about to get home to West Byfleet - taken two hours to do a journey that normally takes 28 minutes. I’m sick and tired of this SWR…

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@damianhumbley The exact same things apply to me too!

Super chuffed to announce today that The Great British Bake Off Musical is coming to the West End in February after two years baking in the oven!🍰

So thankful to Tom Howe for allowing me to use his wonderful original Bake Off theme music, what a privilege!

[Mark Collins @MarkCollinsMD]

@ALThomasMD @MrDavidMassey Hope you enjoyed it! Sadly I’ve been off but am back next week! X

Hey @primevideouk my boys (12) loved @LOTRonPrime and we were all looking forward to episode 3…it drops, it’s now suddenly a 15?! And now unsuitable for them. Why market this as a family series like the PJ movie series (all PG/12As) if it’s not?Very unhappy kids 😢#RingsOfPower
