Best seat in the house at @StAlbansCath for the Bach Choir for Antonín Dvořák's Requiem in B♭ minor, Op. 89. Even the tune up during the interval is magical 🪄 🎼 #classicalmusic

As we get ready for the final performance of The Yeomen of the Guard tonight, we're looking back on this special performance of Gilbert & Sullivan's 'I Am the Very Model of a Modern Major-General' from @jsavournin that we surprised audiences with during the run.

So many repairs today with St Albans District Fixers! A kitchen aid, a radio, a monitor and plenty of textiles, what a great way to celebrate 🛠 #RepairDay #RepairEverywhere @pleriche @StJohnsAL5

The total number of items looked at today were 31! The volunteers managed to fix an impressive 18, the rest were repairable and only 3 were at the end of life.

If you know any families in the area with children who would enjoy such an activity, do share! :)

What’s your earliest fixing memory? 🔧
We went around #fixfest asking the repair community their childhood memories of repair, and here’s what they said! – at Paris, France

"Repair is not the problem" when it comes to cyber security - very clear message by @securepairs at #Fixfest, countering one of manufacturers' arguments anti #RightToRepair
