@geofftech.bsky.social Hi Geoff. I was listening to Adam Buxton's (excellent as always) podcast and he mentioned a BBC 40 Minutes documentary about Angel station from 1989. Thought you'd find it interesting as well, if you didn't already know about it. www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b0074tkn
40 Minutes - Heart of the Angel
Acclaimed documentary that follows 48 hours in the life of London’s Angel tube station in the days before its refurbishment.

What four-album run is this?

For me, it’s M83’s Dead Cities (2003) — Hurry Up, We’re Dreaming (2011)

My favourite bit of donating platelets is finding out where they've used it afterwards. #giveblood

GW12. Trent, Robbo, Bowen > Gabriel, Colwill, Palmer. -4. 🔥

#FPL #GW12. 2FT, a bit in the bank. Had a reasonable idea what to do earlier on the week, now very confused. Trent out, maybe Palmer in but not sure who for. I'm kinda tempted to keep Son. Will fire up @fplreview.com later.

Yay. My YouTube Music recap for the year. My children have ruined my algorithm. #youtubemusicrecap

Current @fplreview.com solve. Am I mad going for Digne? Uninspiring but there's not many exciting options either. #FPLCommunity

Might make this a thread of free posts on the newsletter, because clicks and subscriptions makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

Here's my interview with the man in charge of the tube map, about the process of renaming the London Overground lines.
All change on the Overground
So how do you re-name and re-brand an entire operational urban rail network?

Midway through the tedious international break. Here's me for GW12. 2FT, 1.5m itb. Think it might be time to use some Trent money despite his only minor injury.

FINALLY a decent gameweek score even with a captaincy fail. This is a 1.2m green arrow, although that's still nothing to write home about (OR 3.2m). But baby steps...
November 11, 2024 at 12:42 AM
FPL GW10. 53 points, the hit paid off but only just (+2). Enough for a green arrow up to the heady heights of 4.4m. 🙄
November 5, 2024 at 9:21 AM
FPL GW9. No transfers planned unless something catastrophic is leaked.
October 24, 2024 at 2:47 PM
FPL GW8 Very tempted to do Saka to Son, even if I think the former will start anyway.
October 19, 2024 at 8:52 AM
So another dull international break is over and time to turn back to FPL and make no transfers. Current path using FPL Review, all default settings.
