Yesterday, at the @MandHShow, I spoke about free / cheap tools to help you with your in-house digital work. Today I thought I'd pop those tools into a thread (separated by theme). Some you may already know, some you might not. Either way, I hope it helps! #MandHShow #MuseTech

@thetrainline hello, my work has bought me an Advanced return ticket to and from Sheffield, starting in Witham. I’ll now need to leave from Chelmsford instead, which is a later station on the line. Will I be able to do this with my ticket? Thank you

[Alec Ward @thatmuseumguy]

@UKPowerNetworks hi power cut at CM8 in Witham but nothing on your website. Is there any timeline for when it might be back on? Thanks
