I am unable to access the @Expedia app or website to get details of my upcoming booking. Is the system down?

[Age Without Limits @agewithoutlimit]

The betrayal? Ageism.

The traitor? Every outdated assumption and attitude about what it means to get older.

Enter: our special guests including Diane Carson, here to help smash ageist stereotypes!

[Penny Rutterford @PennyRutterford]

Did a bit of smashing ageist stereotypes

[Age Without Limits @agewithoutlimit]

Tired of ageism limiting us as we get older? Wish you could smash these ageist stereotypes?

We did just that, and it felt great!

You might recognise our special guest here from a certain show full of secrets and sabotage! Yes, it's BBC The Traitors star Diane Carson...

@LloydsBank Thanks - I have just reopened the App on my phone and it is now working

[Penny Rutterford @PennyRutterford]

@LloydsBank your App appears to be down again. Couldn’t access it last night or today. When is it likely to be fixed?

[Penny Rutterford @PennyRutterford]

@LloydsBank I can access it on my laptop but on my mobile I get the message that there are technical problems and to try again later. I mostly access my account on the phone app so this is a problem

[Age Without Limits @agewithoutlimit]

Here Penny chats about her decision to change career and pursue stand-up comedy in her 60s to presenter Shay @sunnyandshay on @BBCLondon for #AgeWithoutLimits

Penny reflects on still wanting to go out on a limb, and how unlike some of her peers, she's happy to be called ‘old’.

@Nextofficial_hq Are you genuinely Next customer service? You have barely any followers and only recently set up this account @nextofficial do you know about this account?

[Penny Rutterford @PennyRutterford]

My delivery from @nextofficial has now been delayed 3 days. That’s 3 days of being told to expect it that day. It’s a large item so I have to be in. They’ve just given me a £10 voucher - what an insult! They still can’t say when it’ll arrive. Nothing Next about their deliveries!

My first attempt at writing a play “Flat” was long listed for this year’s Tony Craze Award with Soho Theatre. I feel a bit pleased with myself cos the competition was fierce! Seriously, it was. https://t.co/0PrTBJly9i

New Years Resolutions! Great to see my friend has secured funding to offer free group coaching for women, especially for those who might be unable to afford coaching. Sign up for one of her in person introductory workshops on 28 Jan or 1st Feb here in Walthamstow

@LloydsBank I cannot get into the mobile banking app - it gets stuck on “authenticating your device”

[Tom Nuttall @tom_nuttall]

Can't believe I didn't know Folkestone holds an annual Kate Bush day where thousands of women convene on the harbour to dance to Wuthering Heights together

[Jon Cooper 🇺🇸 @joncoopertweets]

I’d pay good money to have this guy introduce Trump at ALL of his campaign events. 😂😂

[David Challen @David_Challen]

As a child bereaved by fatal domestic abuse, headlines calling a man who killed three women a “nice guy” and “normal person” have felt personally traumatic.

The media called my father a “gentle man” and “nice chap”, which misrepresented the controlling reality that myself and my family experienced for years. It compounded our trauma.

Reporting like this causes so much damage – both to victims’ families, and to public understandings of coercive control. It has to stop. Now.

We need every single newsroom trained in how to report domestic abuse deaths, and to lobby the regulator for stronger rules. The press has the power to prevent further deaths and save women’s lives.

Please support this crowdfunder I’ve started to support @we_level_up’s crucial work to train journalists in their Dignity For Dead Women guidelines.

This takes all of us ➡️ https://t.co/iPJGFUs7Qn

[Dr. Ann Olivarius @AnnOlivarius]

Can we once and for all dispense with this tedious "But he always took the bins out and said hello" commentary, as if there was a contradiction here that needed explaining.

Violent men ARE "nice guys".

They're nice to everyone but the women they abuse. That's the whole point.

The international symbol for “might have another sandwich.”

[The Secret Barrister 🦋 @BarristerSecret]

Punishing parents for the independent actions of their adult children would certainly be a novel development in our criminal law.

And one not without jeopardy for the parents of certain politicians.

Gosh my earrings have been absolutely exhausting today
