@easyJet any reason your great new app has dumped all my trips and says I don't have up and coming trips? Got a flight in 4hours.

@ossettbrewery very disappointed tonight, on a Friday night, to be told #Threepigeons pub in Halifax was closing early at 2230 on a Friday night even though the place was full. Some poor temp management going on there? Or making too much profit?

[Ben Smith @stageben]

@easyJet only one line for bag drop at @manairport today. No easyjet plus lane. Asked staff, was told this was correct. What do we pay easyjet plus for again please?

@ShentonStage I still think "the 3 tenas" was pretty up there (so to speak)

In order to fight rising gas bills at the Wellington rooms I'm going to insulate the building with greggs pastry.
Even several hours after baking when you bite into a steak bake it's like molten lava in there. Must be the most insulative material known to man.

Happy Birthday (well, for yesterday) to the very talented Mr Stephen Schwartz pictured here with his co-creator on the truly wondrous "Hunchback of Notre Dame - The new Musical"
Last minute birthday gift to the maestro? Why not buy tickets to see it?!

Ha. Seems I'm not the only impressed passenger today.

@manairport you are a joke. 2 hour queue to get through passport control. The flight from Prague was faster than processing at your airport. Scandalous.

[Ben Smith @stageben]

@manairport what a diabolic shambles at arrivals today, with the passport control area completely and utterly overrun. It's clear you have made no attempt to cater for the number of expected passengers, and then applied no staff to manage it. Thank you. 🤦‍♂️

@germanmaggie I nearly got it at 3! Helped tremendously by my habitual starting word being ADIEU. Would have thrown a party. But I had 2 options and of course went for the wrong one! So a 4-er today.

[Ben Smith @stageben]

To all these people getting 2s,and even 1s! Seriously? I'm absolutely elated when I get a 3!

West Yorkshire folk (and beyond) - if you need an emotional escape for an evening - consider supporting regional theatre by booking to see the epic Hunchback of Notre Dame musical at @VicTheatre
