@EmmaKennedy So, if we wear a skirt, we're a distraction, if we wear trousers, we're not making the effort and if we literally cover ourselves from head to toe, we look like bank robbers or letter boxes...I don't think we're the problem here.

@nievethomas @ObsMagazine @Alan_Measles @Philippa_Perry My newly-retired-from-IT husband has just become a volunteer Digital Champion at our local library to support people taking the IT class it offers. But it needs promoting better, hardly anybody has turned up or enrolled as yet.

I see the Fabridougal's tail wasn't in control today.

@_Wordmeister @mrdanwalker @BBCRadio2 Couldn’t agree more, I sometimes listen back several times in the week if I need cheering up.

@batonflipper Such sad news. It’s been an honour to sit in front of Rhys for some of those 30 years. Just the nicest guy. RIP x

@noswadneb Generally I’m stuck front of house, I can see the orchestra going on stage but can’t find my way backstage. And I’m not changed into my gladrags yet!

[Anna Wheal (Cooper) @Quiltquaver]

@Depheruk Heartbreaking. Life shouldn’t be this hard. Just donated, thanks for all you do. X

Congratulations to Joanna Scanlan - who has seemingly had barely any recognition. Why would that be? One of my absolute favourite actresses.

[BAFTA @BAFTA]

An incredible moment for Joanna Scanlan as she wins the Award for Leading Actress #EEBAFTAs

He was fab!!

Our Artist in Residence, Roderick Williams, has been busy rehearsing alongside the Orchestra for tomorrow night’s concert.

Roderick performs Mahler’s Rückert Lieder, in a concert also featuring Vaughan Williams’ The Lark Ascending - https://t.co/dwbVQfXUbT

The utter inhumanity of our response to refugees from this war is shameful. Imagine for one minute that you are walking in their shoes.

Can you stop drinking Coca Cola please. They are refusing to withdraw from Russia. Let’s show them some people power.

[Anna Wheal (Cooper) @Quiltquaver]

Yes exactly! @NadineDorries take note!

The BBC are setting up shortwave radio frequencies for the people of Ukraine to keep informed with the news as their TV towers are bombed and internet services attacked.

You don’t get that with a Netflix subscription.

@272BookFaith My daughter put on her dressing gown and went as Arthur Dent from Hitchhiker’s Guide. Of course non of her classmates knew who that was!
