To Birmingham last weekend, arguably one of the country’s ten or so main cities. There and back on the Megabus, which inspired me to make a few more maps follow the roads, and I’ve a new idea for doing that for even more where currently I draw a dumb as-the-crow-flies straight line between stop points. I think pfaedle might be the best state-of-the-art tool for helping with that.

Watched The Capture (2019–2022) over the last few weeks. It has some great infeasible user interfaces if you like that sort of thing.

Went and saw [the] Sugababes, the Trigger’s broom/ship of Theseus of pop music but their line-up’s stayed a lot more stable than the Conservative front bench (little bit of politics there). That was a nice time. The audience could have shown the support acts some more reverence instead of nonchalantly talking amongst themselves the whole time, a little more chalance please.

🎦 Ticket to Paradise (2022). Not too long, and set in a hot sunny place that’s an antidote to the damp grey autumn. There’s bit of thunderstorm that makes you turn in surprise to the back right-hand speaker. Froth, but there’s nothing wrong with froth, apart from all the extra washing-up when you take a hand blender to hot milk to try to make a poncy coffee.
