Someone clever did this to a lamppost on Coverdale road and now I am disappointed that every lamppost doesn’t have one

Dear BlueSkyers. Sadly I'm getting many reports of scammers pretending to be me here, incl messaging people with 'investments' . Pls share/help me spread word that, as you know, THIS IS MY ONLY BLUE SKY account (proved as my handle is an official MoneySavingExpert one). All others are scams

Not the most aesthetically pleasing view I grant you, but trying to capture Uttoxeter Signal Box and Signal UR3 in the off position sees 170532/516 working 1K61 the 10:36 Newark Castle to Crewe. 20/12/24

First ride for me in a #Class730 on 2W22 11:07 Walsall to Wolverhampton (from BHM). Light and spacious and seems quick off a stand but sitting over the rear bogie end on ironing board seats, comfortable it’s not.

Today 27th November marks the 80th anniversary of the RAF Fauld explosion in Staffordshire. 70 people lost their lives in what is (and hopefully remains) the largest explosion in the UK.

Seeing as there seems to be many people that I follow migrating from the Muskrat platform to where the sky is blue, I thought it time to try out the cross platform poster app Buffer to see how it works. Hopefully this post will appear on both at my scheduled time (17:30) 🤔
