  • @anniemole I got one I noticed. Blocked it straight off. #

  • @anniemole I can’t believe no-one mentioned Mecca Bingo during that SocialMediaCamp session 🙂 #
  • I reckon I’ve walked 6 or 7 miles this morning. Sausage and bacon rolls as reward. Nom nom nom. #

  • Dear Southern, Sending us running from platform 14 to 9 only to then change from platform 9 to 13 at the last minute is FAIL. The Commuters. #
