Mostly hunting down strange buses

Check in with your pals, offer them space in your homes and families
We'd urge people not to panic - there will be lots of commentary coming out quickly that is likely to deliberately overstate the impact that this decision is going to have on all trans people's lives. We'll say more as soon as we're able to. Please look out for yourselves and each other today 💗🏳️‍⚧️

The geography here is predictable (though it is interesting that for areas north of the Severn-Wash line, you only move to net positives in areas with a tram service), but for the overall national figure, a net -2% satisfaction rating with local public transport seems…quite high actually?
38% of UK adults are satisfied with the quality of public transport in their local area provided by buses, trains, trams and the tube – 40% are dissatisfied.

Today wanderings are on System One in the bits of Derbyshire that it views as Greater Manchester

This evenings wanderings really begin under the arches at Manchester Oxford Road. I'm headed out on 2O80 - 16:46 Manchester Oxford Road out towards Liverpool Lime Street, on the CLC via Warrington Central.

A rare opportunity for me to board a train at the buffer ends of Platform 5 at Oxford Road

How Burton vs Tamworth wasn't televised... It's frankly scandalous
A local derby not played competitively for 17 years

And it should've gone to a replay as well... The amount of lost revenue for a non league club... What's happened to the #FACup
Huge preparations around the Pirelli, bigger than any other game I've seen. Letters around the town from the police warning about the day.

Tamworth making Burton absolutely shit itself 😂

I seem to have started a trend of people buying silly stamps from Philatelink...
Well, I didn't start it, I was first tempted by @ignoredambience.bsky.social
