Had a great day. Inspired by one of the talks, I made a playing card of every talk, in lieu of taking notes. #papercamp5

Standard breakfast. No really, that’s what it’s called on the menu. Standardfrühstück.

Great paving pattern here in Innsbruck. Looks irregular but isn’t.

Photo from above of some stone paving consisting of different sized rectangles that interlock in a seemingly random way but on closer inspection do have a repeating pattern.

I’ve taken the kids to Swarovski Crystal World in Austria. It’s as bling as you might imagine but also really good.

I love walking to work under such a thick canopy of London plane trees at this time of year. So much cooler beneath them, and an incredible shade of green.

Oh wow. After many many years, this signage (and all signage) in Crewe has been upgraded.

Saw this old sign the other day. I probably need reminding of this sometimes. Although can you commit good nuisance?

This temporary sign for platform 10 in Crewe (zoom in!) has been there for years!

Love being close enough to Arsenal to leave home 20 mins before kick off and still make it in time. #coyg

Brets have an amazing variety. I particularly like the pomme frites sauce flavour ones.

Enjoyed taking the kids to see zooartshow.com in Paris this weekend. Made a change from Musée d’Orsay, which we usually go to with them!

Interrailing around Europe with my family. Yesterday we rode the Grottenbahn in Linz (opened in 1906). Today we’re off to Budapest.

Popped out to Hyde Park for a walk around the lake. Lovely breeze. A reminder to myself not to just leave central London for the tourists.

In my local park, Highbury Fields, works have begun to dig up some of the road dividing it and convert it into rain gardens. The rest of the road will remain open as a cycle lane and a permanent play street. Super proud to have played a role in making this happen.

Getting on the Windrush line for the first time! At my local station this will make quite a difference as we have 2 different Overground lines going from different platforms. I like the names too. Well done @london.gov.uk! 👏

Photo of two large enamel signs next to each other. The one on the left has the title Windrush line and 2 red stripes. The one on the right says Mildmay line and has 2 navy blue stripes.

More work research visits to on-seas today: Leigh and then Southend. Also think it’s the first time I’ve ever got a train from Fenchurch Street somehow. Had to look it up on a map.

Folks who buy tinned coconut milk for cooking: buy packets of creamed coconut instead! Despite the name it’s 100% coconut (unlike the water and emulsifiers you get added to the tinned stuff), easier to use, and works out cheaper. A revelation I tell you!

Predictably stressful! And just to add to the anxiety there’s these screens with countdown timers of how many seconds until the platforms close… 😬

It doesn’t get more North London than this: my local independent bookshop opened early today for the release of the new Sally Rooney novel, and there was a queue out the door! (And yeah I bought a copy)
