Football, trains and anything that makes me laugh.
Won’t be posting much, though, as I’ve normally got to do something else.

This year ITV turns 70. I miss the ITV I grew up with: a network of local TV stations with their own identities. So, from Anglia to Thames, here’s my tribute to regional ITV and its jingles.

Ever wanted to know what a moron looks like?
Well, click this link to see one in full flow!
I only have sympathy for the driver, station staff and normal people that had to witness this.
There’s a reason you’re told to stand behind the yellow line!

Really sad to hear Jon Brady has left Northampton Town.
A rarity in Cobblers history -a manager who actually got the club.
The fact that HE resigned shows how high his standards are.
Remember, before he was even manager he ran a marathon around Northants during COVID to raise money for charity.

The only people more delighted than Tamworth fans with that #facup3rdRoundDraw are the ad team who wrote that Milk marketing ad in the 80s.

This year marked the first time in history that the Cornish language was mentioned in UK law.
The Media Act 2024 specified Cornish as one of the regional or minority languages that public service broadcasters are obliged to provide “a sufficient quantity” of content in.

On my way back from a lovely few days in Copenhagen & Malmö, and the train geek in me is still fascinated by the front cars of Danish & Swedish trains.
Why are they not aerodynamically pointy-nosed like other railways?
Do they work better in snow designed like this?
Genuinely interested why.

Went on a train which hangs on a monorail over a river!
Even more interesting when it sways after a couple of beers. 🤪😂
Seriously, though, the Wuppertal Schwebebahn is just an amazing experience and a stroke of public transport genius way ahead of its time. Everyone should give it a go! 🇩🇪
