@CoastaMania @MENnewsdesk Hi Coasta, I'm a journalist with the BBC - would you be happy for us to use your images? We'll make sure they are all credited. Many thanks, Dave Schaffer.
Brilliant! Was the demise down to all the paper used for the agendas??
Am going through this week's planning applications to Bristol City Council. There's a very helpful glossary of terms in an application to chop down a tree. "Dead tree: A tree no longer alive."
This is an incredible story that will give anyone touched by #anorexia hope that there really is life afterwards. Aimee’s inspiring, shocking tale also does a great promotion job for #running bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
Salut! The Attic Brew Company are spoiling us🍻
@chris_hawkins @GrooveArmada No problem, Chris. I really enjoyed your chat with Orbital - that David Holmes anecdote is priceless!
Will have to listen to this fine "pod" from @chris_hawkins and the legends that are @GrooveArmada, while I'm waiting
Something for your weekend listening? New How To DJ is with the awesome @GrooveArmada sharing the best stories from their amazing 25 year career Listen: podfollow.com/howtodj
Waiting, slightly impatiently, for my copy of what I reckon will be a great DJ Kicks album - Always Ascending is amazing.

Thanks for that mention @chris_hawkins And, thanks for the edit too - I missed out the “us”. Have a great day. Hope your eye is healing well…
Ahh, Mr @chris_hawkins - with your #lostlove today, you are truly spoiling. The #22-20s were brilliant - definitely a lost love. I’m just sad I never saw them live… cheers for such fine early morning vibes.
This is really exciting. Having witnessed @Portisheadinfo live @adrianutley - admittedly a good few years later - yours is one of the most spine-tingling shows I've ever seen.
Unbelievably 25 years ago today we released this album. And now we have a new version with extra tracks. Vinyl soon.
@ghostpoet Such a great album - Meltdown is sublime. Listening right now, and it still sounds contemporary - the 10 years melt away…
Big congrats to @EzraCollective for landing the prize - just seeing their exuberant performance at #glastonburyfestival surely put them right on track for success. Great band.

Really looking forward to catching the awesome force that is @Jon_Hopkins_ at the @RoyalAlbertHall for what will be the first time I’ve been to the @bbcproms. Fine #sonictimes with Jane, Eliza and Alice.
@VodafoneUK Hi there - yep, my activation day was on Thursday. I left it until midnight for the router to connect to the internet, but it was still flashing red on Friday morning. I’m also still unable to log into My Vodafone account - I keep getting “unexpected error occurred” msg. Thanks
Hi @VodafoneUK - could you tell me when you expect your 24/7 online help service to be back up and running? The router for my new #broadband account is not connecting to the internet. Thanks.
@danwainwright @BBCNews Thought I saw K-9 on the loose, that day...
@rchacksfield Hi - yes. Not because of the horrific events that unfolded, but through being part of a team that reported the story with care and sensitivity.
It has been a horrific day for #Nottingham - these attacks have shaken the city and beyond. It has been a grim, but ultimately rewarding, experience. It was a day that won’t be forgotten for some time to come. #journalism #breakingnews #teamwork bbc.co.uk/news/uk-englan…
