How about a thread about a rather special train, the TMST (Trans Manche Super Train)? This was the project name for the high-speed train designed to link London, Paris and Brussels via the Channel Tunnel when it opened in 1994.

A eurostar class 373 train in original livery at St Pancras in London.

#LimeBikeWankers are making London streets impassable. This has caused tailbacks on three separate streets, all because some knobs leave their bikes on corners. Lorry driver is presently shifting 30 bikes by hand so he can turn the corner.

This feels like a scene from a 1980s comedy where a total loser gives himself a pep talk in his bedroom before going to high school where he gets shoved in a locker and everyone just laughs because he’s so sniveling.

Cropped version of this photo featuring trains coming & going from Harlesden tube station. It captures so much of what I love about the London Underground & is easily one of my fave photos of the year. It's already in the running to be included in the 2028 Tube Mapper Calendar.

The radio call to the Solomon Browne unanswered. The seconds of static that seem to drag on into minutes, hours, days. The repeat call, out into radio silence. Anyone attacking the RNLI is no mariner, has no concept of the power of the sea and should sit down and shut the fuck up.

I remember outrage about Just Stop Oil blocking a street, just in case an ambulance had to drive down it. Not because an ambulance was prevented from doing so, you understand. Just the abstract idea that one might have to.

I once spent a day with Bonnie Greer as part of a discussion panel. I was hugely impressed by her openness to ideas and the quality of her arguments while standing by what she believed in. But what I remember most was her tremendous warmth to me - someone she had never met before.

This is outrageous in and of itself. It's also outrageous that the government isn't doing anything about it. There's a constant political refrain that 'the first duty of government is to protect its citizens'. So do it.

POV: your degree was Chaucer-heavy, you started out as a novelist, your standup still is rambling and discursive, your career probably isn't going to survive as everything shifts more and more inexorably towards 60-second videos.

A reminder that Lewis Page's analysis of defence matters sharply divides other experts. Mostly it divides them between those who think he's a fucking idiot and those who quite agree but prefer not to swear.

Initially I was frustrated with the rise of self-checkout but I appreciated how stores passed the savings on to me rather than pocket the money, fire armies of workers & make me do a job I suck at. It’s also why I’m optimistic about AI! I have been kicked in the head by several horses.
