Not sure about the branding choice of Hugo Boss to go with the latest Superman as their new face.
Feels like there might be some baggage there.

Fantastic start to the morning.
I slept in, or at least I thought I did till my alarm went off with time left to go gym before work! Great start to the day.

Gotta say Transperth, having two spur lines come off a station (Bayswater) without any sheltered bus stops designed to accommodate a line disruption has not been a positive user experience.
At least it’s only 13 UV index and 24 degrees Celsius- could be raining.

Feeling the effects of a second spur line being added to Midland line…expecting/accounting for all the random stopping and delays for a while till they iron this stuff out.

Kid and I have now seen #TransformersOne. Kid said his favourite part was when Robot Goodguyman talked to the undying centre of the universe and was given the strength to fight Despoiler16…or something - weird naming conventions.
