On a packed commuting train and there is a toddler singing unaccompanied nursery rhymes at the top of his lungs (I can only assume he has headphones on or something - i can’t see him) and it is giving me life this morning. Occasionally he breaks up his renditions with loud lion roars. What a guy.

I’ve just added my voice to this consultation saying I don’t want a situation in which staff and fellow swimmers might scrutinise or judge my body, or anyone else’s, when I use the ponds. The current policy of trans inclusion works perfectly well. You can fill out the consultation linked below.
