Hey @BeeNetwork, @FirstWestYorks I just wondered if you guys have been introduced? Maybe you could have a friendly chat about spacing out the 184 and 382 as they currently run a few minutes apart for most of the weekend with big gaps (2 hours on Sunday).

I wouldn't want either of you to think that there's no demand for a service based on current usage data being skewed by the other service turning up a couple of minutes before yours! A little coordination would give us a much more viable alternative to taking the car or taxi.

I remember the time a corrupt McAfee dat file ended up on our internal repository and bricked every NT4 PC on campus. Lots of fun with bootdisks and safe mode

The Academic Procession at #hudgrad led by the University brass band playing a familiar tune #itscominghome @huddersfieldUni
Good morning @KirkleesCouncil, care to explain why Leeds are able to provide a better service despite charging lower council tax? – at Fuengirola, Spain

Not entirely sure this lot know that they only won the semi not the whole competition – at Fuengirola, Spain

Amazing how many people who were totally disinterested in the idea that a 44% share of the vote giving an 80 seat majority to railroad through a manifesto that most voters rejected was an affront to democracy have changed their tune now that the boot is on the other foot

Hey @Ryanair why don't you warn people that the aisle seat on your newer planes has a much narrower space below it than the other seats? Getting a 40x25x20 bag and my size 11 feet under there is a struggle!

What are your proposals to get better national leadership to replace the current corrupt and shambolic Government? Anybody who is paying attention can see that FPTP doesn't work, will you have the cojones to say it?
Marvellous morning in #Meltham with hard working local Cllr Tony McGrath - lots of folk fed up with the shambolic Labour run Kirklees council & lots of support for our campaign to Split Kirklees to help get better local leadership @ColneValleyCons

Looking forward to #D2LConnection in London next week. I'm presenting on using data and a few API based tricks to try to improve module evaluation response rates. Look forward to catching up with the @D2L crew too d2l.com/en-eu/events/connect…

@FirstWestYorks any word on the 185 that should have left Huddersfield at 1603? Not turned up at my stop and not tracking but (predictably) not showing as cancelled on Metro. Am I wasting my time hanging around at the stop? – at Huddersfield, England

Scratch that, it's now tracking 20 mins late – at Huddersfield, England

And once again you trot out "Labour run Kirklees" without referring to the role of "Tory run Westminster" in cutting the council funding, and even less mention of your personal voting record's contribution to that.
Again in the House, I raised my deep concerns about how Labour-run Kirklees are managing millions of pounds of Section 106 funding, and how local people are losing confidence in the system as they aren’t seeing improvements in local roads, local schools and local services.

Replying to @MetroTravelNews
@MetroTravelNews hi, I've noticed that the Moovit planner on your website does strange things with journies with a change at Hudds BS. Eg Slaithwaite to Bradford suggests walking to St George's Sq for the 363 rather than a simple change within the BS.

Possibly because of the distance between the drop off stands and departure stands, the algorithm thinks the next stop is closer? I've seen it do the same for the 371/2 as well

Really pleased with the reaction to my #hudtlc workshop yesterday introducing Competency Based Assessment and the Standards tool (even if it did feel a bit weird demoing new Brightspace stuff with our @D2L CSM in the room!) Short summary video at hud.ac/pr9

A very random request for those of us of a certain age - does anybody happen to have a photo of a GNVQ logbook (either the ring binder or one of the unit pages) that I could use in a presentation?
