It has been 3 weeks now since the @irishferries sailing we are booked on today changed its departure time from 1410 to 1315, & still they & @thetrainline seem incapable of basic communication! If I follow our journey plan on Trainline app we would miss our ferry! #useless
Another year that I get to check in to the annual #clergymaltclub nice & early as after the lively fun of our 2 Christingle services this afternoon, Santa’s Favorite Priest (apologies for the American spelling!) is getting to put his feet up…
…while my colleague does our Midnight Communion service 😀! Tipple of choice for this none whiskey drinker is a lovely NZ DIPA craft beer from the Lakes Brew Co 🍺 Cheers everyone & Happy Christmas! #clergymaltclub
Hi @Irish_Ferries and @thetrainline We have booked to travel to Dublin from Liverpool via train and as foot passengers. According to Irish Ferries website the Ulysses is sailing at a new time of 13.15, but when I view our journey on Trainline app it still says 14.10…
…& times our trains from Liverpool to Holyhead for that 14.10 time not 13.15. If we go with the times Trainline says we will miss the sailing!! Some communication between yourselves and clarity would really help @thetrainline and @Irish_Ferries !!!
Shockingly bad customer service from @EurostarUK @eurostar - I’m simply trying to arrange compensation as it says I’m entitled to as my train was stopped at Brussels and so we were over 3 hours later than scheduled getting to Amsterdam. Says that I need a ticket number…
…as well as booking reference number. In the Eurostar app it will no longer let me view tickets, and in my Apple wallet I just have boarding passes so I can not see the 9 digit ticket number anywhere. Trying to phone to ask help and have been waiting now for 45 mins @EurostarUK
An appropriate note to end today on from House Elliott turntable! He really was incredible wasn’t he?! What a talent, what an album!! #RIPBrianWilson
Massively disappointing @alliedmobility & @MotabilityOps. Our severely disabled & massively complex non verbal 15 year old son has managed to pull and disconnect the wiring for the winch remote in his wheelchair accessible vehicle. We try our best to prevent damage like this…
…but it is extremely difficult! Anyway, @MotabilityOps have refused to cover the repair and @alliedmobility have said it would cost £216 for them to just come and assess and then labour & parts. I think it could be reconnected in about 5 mins flat by someone who knows how…
& might not even need a new part. But £216 just to discover that for definite. In the meantime we and Matthew’s various carers will continue doing our backs no favours pushing him manually up & down ramp, which is no easy job. Really disappointing @MotabilityOps & @alliedmobility
The mega early start and 6:03am train into Liverpool was well worth it! Happily home with my Record Store Day 2025 stash from @81renshaw - who have done a brilliant job as always there. Some great listening ahead of me 😀🎵 #rsd2025
My annual trip on the very 1st train of a Saturday morning into Liverpool - 6.03am! It means it is this years Record Store Day, and I’m off to join the queue outside brilliant @81renshaw ahead of their 8am opening to pick up some special vinyl releases 😀🎵 #rsd2025
Any chance of an idea of stage times tonight @artsclublpool @CFeechan @peatanddiesel ? Sorting out care arrangements for my disabled son and don’t want to miss anything, can’t wait!!
Trying again to see if I can get some idea of this info @BBC6Music @VicWarehouse @EzraCollective due to needing to finalise arrangements for my severely disabled son ahead of Thursdays gig…
Hi @BBC6Music @VicWarehouse @EzraCollective I’m really looking forward to next Thursday! But have to make care arrangements for severely disabled son. Am I right in thinking the order is dj set, then Fat Dog and then Ezra Collective? Is there any chance of an idea of stage times?
Contacted @TheBHF about donating an IKEA cabin bed that our daughter has outgrown - 5 years old and in very good condition still. They accepted the donation online. I called to say that obviously with the size we would have to dismantle it and leave it in parts to be collected…
Driver arrived to collect this morning, spoke to someone and refused to take without the original instructions. I said about it still being a current IKEA item and instructions would be online and I would happily print them, but still no…
They didn’t even look at the condition of the bed. We went to a real effort to give it a clean & sort garage to store it carefully, & deliberately phoned to check for issues. Just wanted to do something good instead of tipping a nice bed. Disappointing @TheBHF
