Yeah, I don’t think he’s really made it that boring either. This year’s TdF was the first time I’ve thought it got a little dull but generally I find the way he races pretty exciting. I’m genuinely curious to see how big a legacy he can build.

Success! Not sure if this is a sign that I’m more able to navigate the train network or less able 🤷🏻‍♂️

However, this train does a secret stop at Clapham Junction so, if I get off there I can still get to Richmond relatively unimpeded 🙌

Noakes was one of my childhood heroes. He did such wildly amazing things and was always so cheerful about it.

This one is what they used to call "a very special episode" in the 80s/90s. We cried, we laughed, we talked about how much Mayor Adams sucks. Give it a listen. #QPR
