I still remember how bad a state every single one of these dogs were in when I found them in various bad situations in Thailand.

Create bespoke worksheets... when the traditional worksheet generator doesn’t quite give you the questions you need, AI helps you get it right.

I’ve made several improvements to this tool over the past week, including enhanced formatting.

He will be able to have a full recovery now and never have to go back on the streets again ❀️

Stormzy was down but he wasn't out.

He has a lot of training, rest and medicines to go but if this doesn't put a huge smile on your face nothing will!!

Snippet from Real Time Trains showing the Azuma was one minute up from Fletton Junction onwards, and arrived at Huntington 3 minutes after it was originally due to pass.

Snippet from Real Time Trains showing the Azuma was one minute up from Fletton Junction onwards, and arrived at Huntington 3 minutes after it was originally due to pass.

Whatever else comes out once the attack on the ECML train last night, this alone is a credit to the train crew, driver, and signalling team.

Huntingdon was the first possible stop. In a highly stressful situation and improvising a plan the train lost just 3 minutes vs line speed to get there.
