So proud of this show, a totally lovely experience since day 1 with the best team. Brilliant for @chandni_mistry and @fishhouseTC to have a Leicester made show with a Leicester creative team on in the studio at @CurveLeicester ❤️
Our lovely show #RotiMoon was born @UpstairsWestern - grew up @AttenboroughAC and has now graduated to @CurveLeicester where you can see @chandni_mistry rolling the roti on 23rd of July! We’re so excited! 🌕🐺 ⭐️🦉 curveonline.co.uk/whats-on/s…

I'd like you to listen to this very nice album on Spotify that's a collaboration between my spoken word and Steve Escott's music. (reader I married him...) open.spotify.com/album/3fEls…

Asking myself why @RCArmitage’s East Mids accents are so good on this audio book and I find he was born & bred in Leicestershire. No wonder. 👏👏👏 nobody ever gets them right.

Better overcome my queasiness and finally renew my passport …
We totally love this film. It was a joy to be filmed and we are crossing our fingers for gigs in Germany!

Oh dear University of Leicester
In this organisation, women's median hourly pay is 16% lower than men's. The pay gap is 3 percentage points smaller than the previous year.

Ruth is our leader! #unglamorous #WeAreBoilers
This Sunday 26 Feb our guest on the LOUD WOMEN show on @louderthanwar Radio is the amazing Ruth Miller, founder of the Unglamorous group – helping Leicester women of all ages to form garage bands and play shows. We'll be talking too about her own 50+ punk band, The Verinos.

Oh wow! Just went to the coolest most punky thing in #Leicester - a real garage band gig. The door went up; Glitch Magnet played and the traffic drove past. Amazing stuff - I'm so proud of the #unglamorous scene - all-women bands just out there doing it! @BBC6Music @loudwomenclub
