Bury was fabulous. Thank you @houghhough . Moved to tears.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@heath_beat Oh my goodness!!! Thx for sharing.

Ages since I shared a tune. Nothing groundbreaking. But if I don’t share, it’s just me in a room playing the piano to myself. Which is perhaps how it should stay - you may have an opinion on this!

@neilsleat Yep, I like that, Neil. Can't explain how or why. A minor key? Hope the storm passed and writing the piece was cathartic.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@heath_beat Brilliant! Thanks!

@greateranglia Hi, could you confirm there will be replacement buses twixt Bury St Edmunds and Stowmarket pls? Could Cambridge trains not be turned around at Stow? Thanks.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@Suff_highways Thank you, Georgie. Sorry, the instructions are a bit vague. The grid ref is approx 088625 if that helps.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@eswater_care Hi, could you explain pls what the 12m telegraph poles popping up in the IP14 area are for. One has just been put up which may well block line of sight & seems unnecessary when there's a pole directly opposite. Thx.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@AnglianWater Hi, could you pls explain what all these new telegraph poles are for? Could the solar panels and equipment not be put on existing poles? Not seen any planning permission notices for them. Thanks.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@greateranglia Thanks, Russ. Not an easy evening for you or everyone involved in trying to sort it all out.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@WTA A mixture is best. A court-level angle is a great instructional tool for youngsters who will be able to appreciate just how fleet of foot you need to be.

@eastwardo @BBC @BBCSport Yep, I've just discovered the same thing. Hopeless @BBCSport. Can you pull a few strings please @Annabel_Croft ? Thanks.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@heath_beat Aha, thanks!!

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

BBC keeps saying first time three British females through to quarters at Eastbourne since 1978 but don't name them. Can you @russellcfuller help pls? Am thinking Wade, Barker and ? Probably totally wrong! Thanks.

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@MrAndrewCotter Hooray!! We have some excellent tennis commentary to look forward to! Perhaps @Annabel_Croft can persuade you to do Strictly.....

[Gillian Childs @gcchilds]

@SP1nightonly Such a novel way to end it all. I was laughing and crying. What a knack you both have for a yarn. Many a true word said in jest but I do hope not all was true. Looking foward to those specials!! Congratulations to everyone who worked on #InsideNo9
