'Only half of children in England have been to a museum or the theatre in the past year, while three-quarters have not been to an art gallery, research shows.' 'In her first interview since taking up the job six weeks ago, Airey said experience of arts and culture “should almost be a human right”.'

I’ve seen many people complaining about the extortionate prices of tickets for Oasis at Knebworth. It’s no surprise. These are the same people who evicted my daughter and I, legally, but certainly not ethically, and turned it into a £375 a night AirBnB. I loved our 400 year old cottage

Nothing gives me more joy than discovering a restore supporting gammon is making racist and ableist comments on Facebook whilst wearing a work lanyard in their profile pic. I enjoyed sending that email to his HR department 😈

Geoff’s fun game leads into another for me. Stations which were built in places that didn’t exist at the time the station was given a name, and the place that built around it is still named that. Bonus points for ones where the station was closed but the name remains (Verney Junction for example)

Folks, I’m on a beach. Listening to a cover band butcher “Sweet Dreams” I’m waiting for fireworks. I have a free poured rum and coke. Life is pretty good. Photo from earlier today

Really disappointed today. Approached a railway society to check if we could film on board one of the upcoming charters (as unmonetised fare paying pax) to be told they charge a £500 filming fee! Not easy to promote heritage societies if they wont work with creators try to save them. Have some 50s

I still think writing Jolene and I Will Always Love You in the same few days is one of the all-time highs in the history of creative inspiration.

Farage's by-election stunt wasted enough public money to pay for free dental care for every child in his constituency. Does he care? No. He just wanted to avoid legitimate parliamentary scrutiny of his dodgy bungs. Which he won't. It'll start again immediately. What a cock.

Devolving a portion of income tax is the most pro-growth policy we've seen in years. It means mayors will be hugely incentivised to grow their local economy including allowing lots of house building and infrastructure development.

As someone who grew up near Howden, so had skin in the game during the David Davis debacle, it’s just a waste. At least David resigned on a (somewhat perfunctory) principle. Farage is nothing but a self serving boor.

I’m staying in a premier inn. There’s a bloke with a strimmer outside who started gardening with gusto at 8:01am. I wonder if he’s of Mexican heritage

My parents rarely align on anything (music included) Mum always loved pop (especially in the eighties) and Dad loves folk music and Celtic rock. So the only place they tend to overlap, is the proclaimers. It’s no shock my music taste is so eclectic

Today I visited the site of my Granparents former home. I’d not been since it was demolished several years ago, due to costal erosion. Hers not to imagine the echoes of the past and the stories in that bungalow. Odd feeling really.

My daughter is ten… she will have had 7 prime ministers before she reaches the last year of primary school. For context… The 7th prime minister in my lifetime was Johnson. I was 33 when he came to power.

I’m tired, the world seems like a dumpster fire and I’ve lost all motivation for pretty much everything… but… if I were to do series reviewing the remaining railway hotels, focussing on their history and their links to the past, would anyone be interested in that?

Catching up on Rivals, honestly one of the best shows I’ve watched in a long time. Every time David Tennant come on the screen I can’t help but think about how I met him in a hotel recently and my only thought is… “WHY DID I WITTER ON ABOUT BLOODY BACON?”
