What would you add in to our website timeline, Russell? railway200.co.uk/timeline/

My reaction too, but the speech bears little relation to the headlines - worth actually reading it. Pat McFadden, in my own experience, is not an idiot. gov.uk/government/speeches/r…

the ACF stuff over the weekend is what's really made me sit up and take notice. Kinda hoping the ecosystem splits definitively as I'm not sure there's much in the Automattic vision for WP I'm attached to

Congratulations! If you end up moving the catalogue too one day, I'd be happy to try and build a new connector to make it searchable on the website

Not a battle/victory indeed, but great to read your update which sounds like positive news. Onwards!

I’ve spent quite a bit of time on my gutters this weekend, and I think I was influenced by this

Thanks, still looks to be down though. Is this related to your cyber incident?

Interesting. Looks like their photocard application system is out of action at the moment, and has been for a while (which I thought was strange in business hours): tfl.gov.uk/help-and-contact/…

If you're looking to lobby the new crop of MPs, my 'Which constituency is that in?' postcode lookup tool has been updated with the latest Parliament API data (thanks to an anonymous civil servant for giving me the nudge): constituencies.squiffy.io/

Imagine being able to have another go at the job you had and loved 14 years ago, with the benefit of everything you've learned in the meantime. I'd be grinning too 😃

MP or peer (so if not an MP, you have to give them a life peerage, like David Cameron), so they can answer questions in Parliament on their brief. If the Sec of State is a peer (like Cam, or Mandelson), a junior minister reps them in the Commons
