Despite a stubborn wound not healing, I decided along with my nurse & fellow runner that I should try running again. #Colostomy Irrigation has been a game-changer & the parastomal hernia hasn't caused any issues. Here's how I've been getting on https://t.co/JRJDKk0Apz #ukrunchat

@cineworld Is the Transformers One Unlimited screening going ahead in Newport Spytty Park cinema? It’s listed but no tickets are available?

@AmyDavies @AP_Magazine Hi Amy, I frequently use my iPhone for photography whilst travelling and happy to have a chat. Shots I take can be found on IG - https://t.co/m7r0CnVBmq

@Sahara88uk @MyOstomyFitness @OstomatePrime @MikeAndNuisance @cro423ker Only just spotted this but I’d be interested.

@GWRHelp I didn’t, just presumed they all would have been out of date as they had to be picked up last minute due to the lounge car being taken out of service.

[Robert Gale @awv]

@GWRHelp have travelled all the way from south Wales to Penzance to catch the sleeper train to London for my birthday only to discover that the buffet car has been removed so won’t get the full experience. Sooo disappointed 😞

[Robert Gale @awv]

@GWRHelp Not only was the lounge car not available on yesterday’s Night Riviera service from Penzance, this morning’s replacement breakfast was meant to be used three days ago. I think I’ll pass.

[Robert Gale @awv]

@GWRHelp Am I able to request a part refund because of the lack of the full advertised serviced that I purchased?

[Robert Gale @awv]

@GWRHelp Is there a reason why there’s not a buffet car on this service?

@Tesco The flies are still there

[Robert Gale @awv]

@Tesco Think you need to tell the Cambrian Road, Newport store to sort out the fruit flies on the bananas.

@Helenmanchester @unsplash You’re welcome and much appreciated the mention ☺️

@mileswithshell https://t.co/C3RlXabpF2 is great for very quickly plotting a route. Chose a start and end point and it’ll plot a route using roads and footpaths instantly giving you an idea of distance between two places.

@CashSupport Based on your track record of extremely poor support, via chat, email and here I’ll just go to the Financial Ombudsman Service to try and recover the stolen money.

[Robert Gale @awv]

@CashSupport Nothing was changed.

[Robert Gale @awv]

@CashSupport Ugh! You stole my money, settings won’t change that. This is a classic chatbot/canned response that I’ve constantly been getting for the past month.

[Robert Gale @awv]

@CashSupport Hi, I’ve been trying to resolve an issue where you have stolen an amount of money and over the past month I’ve had the displeasure of speaking to your email support team (chatbots) who seem to take pleasure in sending me around in circles. Maybe you can help?

[Robert Gale @awv]

@littlemissileo I had a parastomal hernia soon after having my new bum fitted in 2019 and my surgeon always advised to try and live with it. Remember you mentioning about the huge increase in travel insurance after your surgery. Based on what you’ve said I’ve learned to live with it.
