IT Engineer / F1 fan / Space Geek / Random musings of the day as they fall out of my brain - this platform is and shall always be Twitter, I Tweet, I don’t X.
Just when I thought no one could be more disorganised & deliver worse customer service than @SW_Help then I tried to travel #ByBus@GoAhead 1 broken bus means you can’t supply a route thats rural & leave 50+ passengers stranded w/ a history of not reimbursing costs for alt travel
Closest call I’ve ever had there - made my bus by ONE SECOND thanks to @SW_Help & another stupid delay, 2S97 was +5 at Dean then held for traffic at SAL, guard took extra 30a to unlock after stopping. Ran like hell & crashed into the bus as driver was about to shut doors!!!
Why @SW_Help was 2S97 so late - I get the (frustrating traffic rules at SAL) but prior we still picked up loads of time after SOU then another +3 at DEN
15 years ago today, Steve Jobs died. Obama said it best: “much of the world learned of his passing on a device he invented.” I keep coming back to that sentence. A glowing screen in your hand, carrying the news about the man who changed what that screen could do. #SteveJobs#ThinkDifferent
There are people who leave a mark on the world, and then there are people who change it entirely. Steve changed the world and so many lives in the process. He certainly changed my life forever. His spirit lives on in everything he created and everyone he inspired.

Performance of @SW_Help on my monthly travel from September- if I had travelled today they’d of exceeded the months total in a single day for delay minutes. 5.4% for September isn’t bad vs my 9% average. I keep finding new stats in the RailMiles data
Good to know @Support believe in a safe space here free from abuse - I was called a racial slur by someone (I don’t even represent the ethnic origin it is derogatory for). Files a report - get told x it’s fine, he didn’t break the rules. I take from this: racial insults. ALLOWED
Morning @SW_Help any word on repairs to the info screen on P4 at SOU - considering it’s a screen used on so many of your stations and it’s only a display screen seems odd that it’s taking so long to get the parts needed for the repair… @swtrains_watch
Every day @SW_Help we are held up like this - the timetable was altered to accommodate the restrictions due to power issues so why is 2B16 always late, destroys the extra time we have for this trip! @swtrains_watch
Hey @ODEONHelp what is going on with @Avengers Doomsday? App says we are booked but haven’t got any confirmation so tried to book again and doesn’t allow
Ok tweeple - gotta start looking at costs, been a loyal @Spotify customer for 15+ years (can’t remember) but it’s so much now & now deals to lock in annually etc… @AppleMusic seems to be trying to woo me with 3 month trail & o the benefits - what to do
It really is bad that @ODEONCinemas offer everyone these super special collectors deals for films like ENDGAME but yet an hour before the film starts they’ve already sold out (likely to scalpers who’ll flog them on eBay)
Morning @SW_Help what’s up with 1B90 it’s right outside the station and nothing till Hinton Admiral? .. it’s now +3 what’s the reason for this unusual hold up?
Recent changes to RailMiles by @RealtimeTrains are fab, I can clone my journey or add the next leg whilst building the first, so good - next step for me would be to clone the linked legs as 1 step / show 1 journey when legs are setup together as 1 journey 100% loving it
