I thought I'd take the opportunity to put together a website representation of these new Rail Clocks which launched yesterday.
railclock.davwheat.dev
Source code (MIT): github.com/davwheat/rai...
And, don't worry, it does have the special flourish every 12 hours!

The death of multi-camera TV: a thread. I know most of you will know the technical parts of this (and may have read it in the other place) but bear with me. 1/ 🧵

Trouble is, I can’t listen to this bit of the Rite of Spring without saying “JOHN Fashanu”

This is “Train Going Over a Bridge at Night” by Eric Ravilious (1935). Despite being a perfect combination of my interests, until the other day I’d never really thought about *where* the bridge is, and *what* the train is. A 🧵

It's 20 yrs today that I was in a cafe on the shores of Loch Ness and my mate ordered a toasted teacake.
The waitress asked my exasperated southern friend to clarify.
"A teacake cut in half, grilled and buttered? Are you sure?'
The Tunnocks that came out was like a horror from Doctor Who.

Fun vintage shop find - a GWR jig-saw puzzle of King George V from the 1930s, only two missing pieces, but really like the cut out design. Haven’t seen many puzzles that do that but it really brings the shape out. Also bonus GWR system map hidden in the box!

Well hello, thought I’d try Bluesky - and what a place to start at Prom 33: Elgar, Holst, Stanford and Vaughan Williams. Have wanted to hear A London Symphony live for years.
