@SouthernRailUK FOUND! Thank you for all your help.

[Rachel Shouksmith @RShouksmith]

@SouthernRailUK lost medical device, probably left this morning on 7.58 west St Leonard’s to Warrior Square or 8.15 Warrior Square to Eastbourne. Omnipod 5 controller, looks like a mobile phone, screensaver says ‘medical device’ and phone number. Needed urgently!

On Tuesday night I was privileged to sing as part of the @natyouthalumni in @natyouthchoir ‘s 40th anniversary concert @RoyalAlbertHall. I have been a part of NYC from age of 15 and have so much to thank NYC for: general musicianship, high quality singing, (1/2 🧵)
