People talk about the electrifying effect Zack Polanski has had on the Green Party but I think Starmer's impact is bigger.

Well well well, BBC. Your colours are showing, not that you care, quite frankly you can stick your fucking licence up your arse if you think you're getting a penny more from me, funding this.

UH oh! Slabs too! 👀

Feeling this too this morning Sam. First shift back in since March 31st. Goodness knows what I've missed and need to catch up with. Hope it's a positive day and week ahead for you!

What do you use to run your Windows software out of curiosity? I've an M4 Macbook which I love, but it'd be nice to play some of my Steam library on it.

Last leg of the Interrail adventure. 🥳 Must be mad doing the Rugby/Tamworth shuffle but I made it, and it's got me on a train an hour earlier, so woop! Will be glad to be home, though it's been a great trip.

They did, several times over the last few days 😊

Planning/hoping on 9K39 (or 9G38 if we race) to get back to Brum to connect with my last / second last train North tonight. Will have to keep an eagle eye as we head north, sounds a frustrating incident. Just departing Gare du Nord now!

Last morning, petit-déjeuner à Paris before the 1609 Eurostar back to reality. It's been a lovely week away, even if travelling with my parents has been hard work at times. 😅

Total brainfahrt today but got there in the end!

West Midlands. Was always pop here.

and Juice in Scotland.

Correct.

Yeah Conductor has confirmed, second set swap in Buchs.

It's a set swap in Innsbruck, then either another set swap in Buchs, or a cancellation in Buchs, depending on which app you believe! We shall see. I don't like not knowing. 😅

Our chariot to Zürich, or Sargans, or Buchs SG, or wherever it ends up! 🙃🫠

Thanks! 🙏

Why is it that it's only on the long time critical legs of your interrailing that things go tits up?

We haven't even left Innsbruck yet, and the train to Zurich is now cancelled from Buchs. What was a 2hr 20 connection to a TGV Lyria there will now be (if the next train is on time) 20 mins. 😐

Pity about the AI poster. 😐

Obviously, I am not number 1, but I'm up there. 😇

Evening in Innsbruck. First impressions, not great, but had a wander into the Altstadt and that's a bit nicer 😊

I was 8 so yeah 😜

Couldn't do that again if I tried! :o

Reporters next question should have been:

Mr President, are you medically incapable of breathing without lies tumbling from your swollen, orange lips?

Quite an end to the day. #LongMynd #ChurchStretton #Shropshire @thephotohour.bsky.social

It was bearable until the 30 min journey back from Monsee turned into almost 90 mins due to chaos and ludicrously heavy traffic on the Westautobahn. It was pretty, though.

You have -no- idea how much I hate that damn song. 😂

I like the 'seriously chocolatey' ones, and the caramel ones. That's it.

Achingly, terrifyingly accurate. 😂😂😂
