It seems there are no Bury to Piccadilly trams today with the suggested route changing at Victoria then Deansgate. With no central Manchester maintenance scheduled, and no info on the travel advice page, why the inconvenience of changing? https://t.co/VNlD61T7ka

@ScottBrosDuo Alzheimer's certainly has an impact on those with it and their families. Once diagnosed, carry on with the fullest possible life the state of the disease permits. Now in our 70s, it is a couple of years since my husband's diagnosis but we are still travelling and enjoying life.

This is a beautifully clear analysis of Nigel Farage and a clear warning why his politics must be stopped from bringing the UK to a sad state similar to today's USA.

@labourlewis I am grateful for the attention you have brought to this seemingly flawed process. I hope your colleague, my MP @JamesFrith, will join in your call for proper scrutiny.

[Clive Lewis MP @labourlewis]

I’m deeply concerned that significant changes to trans people’s rights could be approved without MPs or the public seeing the details first. This lack of transparency risks reducing accountability on issues that affect lives and freedoms. These proposals must be open to proper scrutiny before any approval. Everyone deserves to know what is being decided in their name.

@ORTOA3 The David Wood organ of St Peter's.

A recital programme with a strong flavour of Victoriana with Tom Bell. It was an RCO Play the Organ Year event and was followed by an open console session. #PlayTheOrgan @RCO_Updates

@reporternewton It is especially terrible coming after so many years of generous expenditure on the military by the previous administration!

@interpl8 Sorry to read this, Clare. Best wishes from me and Julian that you can still enjoy Christmas in some way. We'll be down in Arundel for Christmas.

@anglicanmenorca I receive content from Faithful America. They have mounted some very useful campaigns again the hijacking of Christianity by many right wing groups, not least some churches and in particular, certain Roman Catholic bishops.

Looking at cakes in the coffee shop is a habit of mine. It's less usual for the cake to look back at me!

Five years ago was a busy period filming and directing dramas, written by Rosie Adamson-Clark. She died this summer and I'm sharing another of the films we made. "Four Wheels..".

@BBCNWT What on earth were you doing "dead naming" (disclosing a pre-transition name) the murdered teenager, Brianna Ghey. Such information was entirely irrelevant to the essence of the report.

Yesterday provided a good discovery of this amazing building in Rochdale. @TheCCT

Here's an extract that starts with sound as heard in the body of the church. After about 50 seconds the sound changes to microphones in the organ loft with the horizontal Trompeta directly overhead.

@JadeCallaway We've engineered our own crisis after buying this in our local Spanish supermercado a couple of days ago! It's a favourite.

Blackburn Cathedral have launched their third composition competition. Entries should be an organ piece suitable for use as an Advent processional. Judges will be Professor Paul Mealor Dr. Colin Walsh and John Hosking. Full details are in the image.

@DariusBat Can the live event also be experienced at the three other venues, as well as in Utrecht?

[𝙈𝙚𝙡(anie) 𝙋𝙡𝙪𝙢𝙡𝙚𝙮 @Organist55]

An enjoyable afternoon starting with choral evensong at St George's Stockport, followed by filming David Price's recital.
