@EastMidRailway Thks - I’ve already sent 3 emails (2 yesterday with the ticket) and another one now with delay compensation reference too. If someone could look at this, I’d appreciate it.

@EastMidRailway struggling to get compensation after the chaos at St Pancras yesterday Eg. Missed train due to EMR decisions to force people into queues. Have now appealed the decision for compensation . Can you help please?

We were treated to music and storytelling from Suntou Susso on Sunday at Allen Valleys Folk Fest. Suntou, a Griot of the Gambia, brought his kora and tradition of storytelling through song that sounded like liquid velvet as it wafted over the audience.

@LordRickettsP Super thread. I’m now mourning the loss of my handwriting ability. I can remember writing a beautiful introductory letter before my first posting. And choosing a suitable black dress in case of official mourning. Super to look back.

@Pret time to update your menus if things aren’t being offered like shakers anymore. Asked why menu hasn’t been updated and was told that’s a managerial decision.?

[Women in Sport @Womeninsport_uk]

The greatest sporting story you've never heard of⚽

In 1971, football teams gathered in Mexico City for an unofficial Women's World Cup.

Dismissed by FIFA, this event was written out of history. Until now.

Copa 71 is in Cinemas from 8th March #InternationalWomensDay #COPA71

@UNWomenUK I attended a great panel last night focused on Ukraine and over lunch, I tuned in to a discussion on women working in the nuclear field. 2 amazing women talking about their areas of work thanks to fellowship programmes on offer.

@ClaudiaRTCraig This really made me smile.

@twickerati Lack of cash machines and no signposting to banks where you can still withdraw cash. Seemed to create an issue for visitors yesterday.
