Whoops, I fell asleep after dinner and am now wide awake at 1am.

Treated myself to a freight loco! The Accurascale Cl.66 is very impressive!
Tried the Bus. It was grim. Now trying Thameslink to Farringdon for the return.
Mitch@coastermitch.bsky.social · 18h agoI was planning on heading to a shop in tooting this afternoon but: There's no district line so it'd be a rail replacement bus to Wimbledon. (I'd rather die) Or I go via the Victoria line to Stockwell but that means changing at Green Park (I'd rather die) Or I go via Leicester Square (I'd rather die)

My flat has dropped below 20°C so I've caved and popped the heating on.
Instead of spending more money on model trains I'm sensibly rotating the ones I have. The Progress Pendolino is being put away (homophobic, right!) and it's double east coast on the main shelf now.
Standing in the loft lobby at work I can hear one lift playing High School Musical music. If that's my lift then I'm waiting for another.
Just had my District Line train overtake another District Line train i missed a few minutes earlier. I would be smug about that but a few stops later this train is now super busy 😭
It's cold and dark and wet and I hate it! 😭 The weather the last few days has flipped and I can't wait to go on holiday in 3 weeks and get some warm sun again!
15 minutes into my workout: "Battery Low"... I should have stayed in bed.
Booked a last minute sunny holiday in 4 weeks so now I need to go on a crash diet to get Speedo ready.
Just slapped a lime bike rider who went through a red light and nearly hit me and tbh 10/10 would recommend.
Ordered a drink via mobile app in a bar and it arrived in 90 seconds! Wetherspoons could never.
My vitriolic hate for Just Eat/Deliveroo riders is renewed as two of them nearly collided with me on my 5 minute walk to the station 😡
My GIF usage in teams is definitely going to get me in trouble one day
There's a really annoying ITV advert with a woman repeatedly screaming "What Now" and that's how my brain has been feeling this week. God I need a holiday.
The worst thing about this series of celeb traitors is that I'm somehow being slightly attracted to James Blunt.
Had a terrible night's sleep as I dreamt a guy called Jonny kept parking my car in bad places and getting fines.
They've turned the lift music volume up at work recently and it's so annoying 😭😭
British Airways offering absolutely insane journey combos - sure ill just take another 4 hour flight between these flights...??
When I say I want a large model train collection, this is what I mean...
The 195 bus let me down by terminating short but the driver of the next 207 saw me confused and invited me on. Now got a private bus all the way to Ealing Broadway!
Went to Boots to pick up a Prescription and an American guy in front of me was far too loud about how he needed his Erectile Dysfunction meds! 🤦🏻♂️🙈
I do question people who say London's nightlife is dead when I'm on a packed tube after 11pm on a Wednesday - it's clearly not dead!
