This would be hilarious if it wasn’t so annoyingly dumb. Never trust a statistic you haven’t made up yourself.

I’m expecting the problems of overtourism to come to a head in 2025, and it’s interesting to see the destinations on Fodor’s annual ‘No’ list. No real surprises but telling all the same www.fodors.com/news/news/fo...

We all know that most awards ceremonies are a bit of nonsense where buying a table usually trumps being worthy of a win, but this is quite the own goal for Irish Tatler, who've effectively declared their award ceremony is neither stylish nor substantial
Few weeks ago, the Irish Tattler emailed me to say I'd won their media award, asking me to attend to accept it, I said I couldn't attend on the night, thanking them. I see that they gave the award to another person just because of that. Not that I care one bit, but still seems like bad practice.

This is incredibly sad. My wife is from close to Hadrian’s Wall and I worked with Cumbria Tourism for a few years - and this was one of the most beautiful corners of our remit. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023...

@fionndavenport.bsky.social my first post: I rarely put anything up on Twitter anymore as it’s a hellscape, so here I am - following nobody and without followers - typing into the void. My life is pretty eventful, even if my social media activity isn’t.
