Visiting Copenhagen currently. Just cycled along the 'Snake Bridge' installed because planners noticed people carrying bikes up and down a set of steps. A bitter sweet experience thinking of coming back to painted lined and perpetual discussions of if bike lanes have a right to exist in Edinburgh.

Taken a day to process but that was a fantastic final day of a truly fantastic tournament. 🌹 Sitting in front of the entire Scotland team drinking and cheering on friends was an added bonus.

As a Scotland fan that ranks up there with the best games I've seen in a Scotland shirt. Absolutely destroyed my voice chanting. Regret nothing. #ScoVWal #RugbyWorldCup

I'm sure I saw the alternative route in plans somewhere? I take the green route going from canal to EICC, and the yellow route back.

Trying to check if Scotland vs France Women's Six Nations tickets are available... and I hadn't realised the lasting ticket-buying trauma that the French Rugby Federation had instilled in me from the World Cup ticketing process until I saw this screen 😱
