Without a doubt the highest place I'll ever have a coffee without being on a plane!

Did a "big shop" two weeks ago at Tesco. Did another one today and it's actually alarming how much prices have risen in that space of time.

These Jet2 memes are getting out of hand now. Perhaps one of the stranger items of graffiti I've ever seen.

Feels like I've gone back in time to 2002 watching this whopper of a hotel TV. Wonder if it'll go CRACK in the middle of the night...

This has tickled me, so true.

Absolute whopper.

Loving the passive-aggressive announcement from the LNER TM this morning asking to keep phone calls quiet and to avoid using speaker-phone because "no one is interested in what you have to say" pahaha, nicely said and very true.

Non stop sniffles from me for about 24hrs now, it's draining me!

According to my records I've not had a 91 out of Stevenage since 2011 and since it's their day today, a pre-work trip just had to be done! 91124 arrives with the 09:28 to York. #225day

Made the mistake of looking under the worktop at work. Spiders - several of them 😷

I still feel quite guilty about going on that purely due to it being a winner, but in this hobby, when the chance arises... πŸ€·πŸ»β€β™‚οΈ

As a small forest slowly envelopes the line, the weedkiller train sleeps nearby.

Seems to happen every time a new station or line opens, numbers are woefully underestimated. Like you said, provide it and they will come. I don't know why this keeps coming as such a surprise to those in charge.

Forgot my earphones and on a couple of fairly long train journeys today 😀 nothing to drown out the sound of asshats watching videos out loud and having no sense of how to behave in public.

My partner works in a charity shop and it happens almost almost daily, in a charity shop where almost everything is Β£2 or less too.

Has anyone ever picked something up from the floor with their toes (at home obvs) because you can't be bothered to bend down? Or is it just me channelling my inner primate 🐡

Proper grim outside but it's time for coffee and warmth.

Tenderstem is great, give me that over normal broccoli any day. Seems to suit more dishes.

Just seen a man say hello to a potted plant, and when it inevitably didn't reply, he turned to storm off and tripped over a bollard. Some right states in Leeds.

January has lasted about three years but locking up this evening at 17:30 and there's still a glimmer of light in the sky - we're (slowly) getting somewhere!

Given up watching a couple of things because there were such long scenes in darkness. Does nobody ever think to put the big light on? No let's fumble around in the dark.

What is it about Birmingham Airport, I always find it so inexorably confusing

As if it wasn't bad enough having to dip into the ersatz coffee at work having forgotten my own, it's bloody decaff too isn't it πŸ˜‘

Pisses me off, they don't even try to offer you a good deal, it's like they don't even want your repeat custom. Then like you said, the hassle of switching to a new one!
