@bugsandfishes These would be the same older generations that broke the walls down for the rest of us? Rubbish excuse.

@megaconlive waiting to hear about carer ticket for Mcr tomorrow, getting anxious, can you please help?

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

Said it before and here it is again: Dear venues, if it's harder to book accessible tickets than standard tix, this is the opposite of access. Today's is @Alberthallmcr #arts #access #edi

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@DinahSW Absolutely. And an essential part of the overall balance / story I felt.

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

Rare bus man's hol to a museum I'd no connection to or much prior knowledge of. Absolute model of how to museum. Every detail and the sum of all the parts inform, emote, inspire curiosity, creativity and potential. Highly recommended.

New episode alert! Hear @samleesong and @YomiSode talk about the emotional weight that the Foundling Hospital tokens carry on the latest episode of our podcast, 'Take this Token' https://t.co/GTLpttQpS6

@Jocelyn_ My inbuilt mode now is 'how could this be better?'. Things I would improve at The Foundling Museum were very few.

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@DinahSW @RuthSinger I wish curators would feel more confident in overruling designers when the need is strong. And front of house volunteers were consulted with throughout development. They have rare insight into visitor reality which is frequently overlooked.

@commanderwhitby @MediaMuseum Oh wow I've never seen that poster before, it's stunning. Wish I had time to pop over and see it on the big screen, how amazing.

@lfcrossley I'd have 'Joined etsy as a seller in its first year along with the 40 other UK sellers [and we all knew each other]'

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@the_museumfolk Why can't I search your whole collection online?

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@AnnMemmott Also flippant - which has slightly different connotations I guess.

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@AnnMemmott Where's the option for 'yes, every other day at least for the first 30+ years of my life' ... still happens incredibly frequently.

@vickybarlo @DinahSW I lived in Kilburn. I can confirm I was never converted. (Course being veggie could also have played a part...)

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@AnnMemmott @reeshazahir Thanks - my thoughts exactly.

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@lfcrossley @Aimuseums Well done Laura, I remember those days fondly!

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@cladle Oh Claire that is a right old plateful! Eesh. Wine o'clock?

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@bugsandfishes A) if you have onions + garlic; or soy sauce and sweet chilli, you can rustle up a good meal with whatever's in. B) Passata, and red kidney beans means you can always make a chilli or bolognese(ish) sauce (if you've followed rule A. C) There is never a wrong time for pancakes.

[Sally Fort @sallyent]

@bugsandfishes Is that a real thing or some ironic arts commission?
