Nothing like a good radio telescope on the way over too 😉

Haven't yet put all the trimmings on it yet from the original design I did. Nicked a graphic from an LNER FOI request document to make this...
5 coaches of a train illustrated in a red white and blue livery with a double arrow and the word InterCity on it. Also visible are visual indicators for first class, bike storage and the like.

Greggs plant pot.
A cylindrical plant pot, likely a takeaway coffee cup, with some fake flowers placed within it. The blue and orange GREGGS logo is placed on it. The pot is within a lit grey, concrete walled room on top of a wooden desk.

Really doesn't feel sensible to try and paint your house before you've even decided on what to put in it.

I'm not against the new livery now per-se, but it does feel like a temporary promo thing given how copy and paste it looks. Feels like something that was forced through rather than thought through.

Anything but address: - Poor access to childcare funding and the like - Lack of opportunities for young people - Lack of legislation against companies creating such addictive apps and behaviours - Lack of legislation against polarising/etc. algorithms - Lack of support and education for parents

Going out of your way to simplify things down again, yet you still end up attempting to do the complicated one anyway because you can't get yourself to do the simple version.

It does look smart, but come on... How can you put the double arrow on something that both looks copied from the Americans and something I feel like they did a better job at.

Sam @mezzie.uk · 08/12/2025
I don't mind this too much apart from the fact that's what they went with for the trains. It feels to me like a good one-off promotional thing rather than something for trains generally - also which will just be those running services for England. It doesn't feel serious.

There is no escape for you now. Embrace the ritual of getting up stupidly early just to go to a Parkrun on the way to wherever it is you're going.

off into the sunset...
An electric high speed train going south, down to London, heads into a sky lit up by the sun setting. A lattice truss road bridge is visible just in front of it, spanning the throat into a station. The train features a livery with both the standard LNER colour scheme (white with a red stripe along its length and yellow at the very front below the cab window), but with a different pride flag found on each coach within that red stripe.

Found a neat spot for a photo of @lner.co.uk's 'Together' train this evening just outside of York station 🚄

Well done on getting through till now and good luck! Got my assessment (combined with Autism, to no one but my mum's surprise apparently) at the start of next year. And yeah, RTC is the best chance anyone has of getting an assessment within 5-10 years of referral at this point...

the failed versions of this are quite funny, as is the weird and whacky antics of the actual symbol if you look closer to avoid it looking off.
A poor geometric depiction of Great Britain, with Wales and Cornwall  being shown as part of the same bit of land. Just no.A screenshot showing how the top segment of the symbol looks offcentre when properly centred with another part of the symbol.
