Hello everyone, from now on I'm going to be cross-posting from Twitter to here :)

First time trying a 720 and I have to say, I was very impressed.

720 533 + 720 143 took me on a short hop from Cambridge North to Cambridge on 2H23!

LinkedIn is terrible. Every week I get random ads in my DMs for random webinars about financial management positions when my whole profile is based around wanting to become a conductor πŸ™ƒ

Pride is more important now than ever before, especially considering Labour's horrible attacks on trans people.

I hope everyone has a great time at whatever parades you're attending, personally I can't wait for Northern Pride in Newcastle πŸ™ŒπŸ»

"Yeah, but why do you need an entire month for #Pride?"

The last few months has seen one of the largest rollback of LGTBQIA+ rights for a long time. A month gives us time to fight for a safe and inclusive future whilst also celebrating queerness and how far we've come
