✈️Après 30 heures d’attente, j’ai enfin réservé mon vol. @AirFrance s’est excusée, c’est gentil, pas réparateur. La carte de réduction, payée me rappelle qu’on mise souvent sur les promesses, rarement sur les résultats. La déception, elle, est toujours incluse dans le prix.
✈️After 30 hours, I finally booked my flight. @AirFrance apologised, which was kind, though not curative. The discount card—paid for, useless—reminds me that we often invest in promises rather than outcomes. One learns, eventually, that disappointment is part of the fare.
@classicjacko May I heap mountainous praise upon your presenter Ian Skelly — a man of wit, wisdom, and the rare ability to make even a tuning fork sound like poetry. Radio gold with a velvet voice! @BBCRadio3@Ianskellyradio3
⚠️ SCANDALEUX : 22H à essayer de réserver un vol avec ma carte de réduction #AirFrance (achetée en MARS). Pannes depuis hier matin. “Problème technique” ? Piratage ? Aucune solution, juste “veuillez patienter”. @airfrance – INADMISSIBLE. ✈️ #GalèreVoyage#ServiceClient#panne
⚠️ OUTRAGEOUS: 12+ HOURS trying to book a return flight with my #AirFrance discount card (bought in MARCH). System errors all day since 10:22 AM. “Technical issue”? Hacked? Zero resolution. No help. Just ‘please wait.’ @airfrance – THIS IS NOT OK. HELP. ✈️ #TravelFail#AFgate

⚠️Unbelievable! I’ve been stuck trying to book #airfrance return ticket for over 12 hours since 10:22 am, using a AF reduction card purchased in March. The system is supposedly experiencing “technical” issues. Hacked? I get messages to be patient. This is outrageous! Help!✈️
Honoré d’avoir été invité, avec ma collègue Anne-Hélène Moncany, à la conférence annuelle des évêques de France à Lourdes pour aborder la question des violences sexuelles. Nous avons souligné l’urgence d’une prévention à trois niveaux : primaire, secondaire et tertiaire.#CEF
@Ianskellyradio3@BBCRadio3 Ah, Friday on Earth—the one day the Sith and Jedi can agree on: time to kick back and enjoy some Essential Classics. Meanwhile, in a galaxy far away, Darth Vader is probably conducting an intergalactic orchestra… with a lightsaber baton. May the music be with you, Ian Skelly!
@Ianskellyradio3@BBCRadio3 How about Saint-Saëns’ The Swan for a touch of elegance, Haydn’s The Hen for some clucking charm, and Stravinsky’s Firebird to ruffle a few feathers? And don’t forget the turkey trot with Joplin! A playlist to make the barnyard proud!
@Ianskellyradio3@BBCRadio3 I daresay, the only civilized hour to amble down to the market is precisely at 11:30 a.m. just in time, you see, for the first glimmer of an aperitif. A delicate nibble soon follows, perhaps a morsel of lunch, then a gentle retreat homeward for a brief siesta.
I’ve just driven up half of the UK with @BBCRadio3 on the radio. Apart from the presenter, this was a compelling broadcast. One I shan’t forget for a very long time. Glad I was there on the night and, to my surprise, it was the Enescu that blew me away. Hear it @BBCSounds.
