@CrossCountryUK So I should still get off at BNS and then continue via Derby and Sheffield?

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

@CrossCountryUK I'm on the delayed 18:45 from Bournemouth to Manchester Piccadilly supposed to be getting the 22:03 CC from Birmingham New Street to Derby then on to Sheffield via EMR but won't make my connection at BNS - what should I do? No staff to ask 🤷🏻‍♀️

Look how much I learned on Duolingo in 2023! How did you do? #Duolingo365

Second time ever on a @GC_Rail train - don't think I'll be risking that again! Meeting friends in London and they are all sitting waiting for me as my train just gets more and more delayed 😭

Looking forward to this year's John Lewis advert which will just be a family huddled around a burning christmas tree for warmth as they cook the family cat on a spit and a piano version of things can only get better by D:ream plays

Celebrating mental health day the traditional way by going on twitter and ruining my mental health

I have a confession !

Last season @Heineken asked me and @jillscottjs8 to swap Twitter accounts as part of a social experiment to see if men and women are treated differently online . What happened was unfortunately predictable ! An important reminder that gender bias should have no place in our game . #fresherfootball #Ad

Interesting article on the failings of reproductive care for people who menstruate. More important a link at the end of the article to a survey from Prof Lesley Regan, the UK's women's health ambassador, that is open for comments on your experiences.

Is it 2023 or 1923?

Woman with long standing successful tech journalist career lands an extra role on TV off her own bat.

Yet newspaper headline ONLY names who she's married to and how she looks.

@Tharindu__ It's the same badge! They haven't added a "S" ☺️ I never got a CMALT one so making up for it now. I think they mentioned posting some out? Doesn't hurt to ask!

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

Almost forgot the important part - finally got my SCMALT badge in person! #altc23

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

Appreciating the irony of the title of this session and the warnings on the door 😅 #altc23

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

Wish I could stick out the gala dinner to the bitter end. Considered 90s makeup but didn't want to undo the years of regrowing my overplucked 90s brows! After stimulating chat and a competitive quiz at table 19 my poor old bones are spent. Need to recharge for day 3! #altc23

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

Finally another great session from Anne Marie Scott on 5 things to know before buying Ed Tech. There's a real need for a safe & secure platform for LT professionals to share positive and negative feedback on tools without fear of prosecution - who's willing to facilitate? #altc23

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

It has been a super packed day of sessions at #altc23 and now it's time for a wee break before the gala dinner so get ready for a content dump of the day 2 takeaways 👇

[Caroline K @fireflyT800]

Patrick Dunn again this time sharing decision making strategies for avoiding hype around ed tech tools. Really appreciated the hype cycles and decision making approaches shared and hope it will help me not get carried away in the future when tackling problems! #altc23
