@Citymapper I always enjoy reading your blogs. Congrats on a good 2025! One thing I always wonder, is what's your revenue stream? As a customer I don't pay a subscription, so who funds citymapper? It's been great watching you grow!

🎉 Citymapper 2025: that's a wrap! New features, transport awards (Citymapper style), Employee of the Year (🐶), and growing partnerships 🌍 Take a look back 👇 content.citymapper.com/news/2826/2025…

@ZSLWhipsnadeZoo Hiya, can we visit the zoo by bike and do we get the same discount as those on public transport? Thanks!

@SaraStefaninii Is that bath really short or really wide?

@fesshole To be fair, 4 pencils and it's only the 4th Jan...

I work in an office and whenever I need a new pencil I go to the stationary cupboard and get one. They don't know I take them home. I must have taken 3 or 4 pencils home this year. I don't even need all the pencils, one of them is just a spare.

@DAaronovitch It's almost like this may turn out to be a bigger story than is reported at the moment, and when we look back, this level of coverage may seem appropriate

I think the level of coverage of the Philip Schofield story - which has almost no importance whatsoever - is totally weird.

@natasha_pulley And how about eBooks? It's a thing with revisionism in films etc on streaming services. IIRC the fans face original Star Wars versions aren't available anywhere etc, so you never know if you mis remembered or book/film was always like that.

@natasha_pulley really enjoyed Valery K's adventures. Thanks. I'm sure you've been bombarded with physicists nit-picking things, but only mistake I noticed was that UK Parliament wasn't shown on TV until 1989 🤣

@BBCr4today Thought for the day is out-dated religious indoctrination. It needs to go. Our household turn the programme off when it comes on as I'm sure others do. It marks an excellent programme as out of touch with the modern non religious UK population #r4today

@nedboulting @RealStephens Sorry, I might be being an idiot, but where can we hear you guys commentating? Where I'm watching it (in the UK) has a different commentary team...

@fesshole Or even better, pretend that you think that they can't hear you, and say things like "I don't know what I'm going to do, if they make me pay this bill I won't be able to feed the baby this week."

If you're put on hold by a call centre, put yourself on mute too. Otherwise they can hear you slagging them off or whatever else you're doing. I've heard it all.

@BarkNoise @thegladpub @LOVELLsongs @Inscapeband @paulclaxton75 Hiya, any details about this? Times etc? Ta! Not been to the pub before.

Reminder of Tuesday 20th Dec at @thegladpub, a festive occasion with @LOVELLsongs, @Inscapeband and @paulclaxton75. You can book a seat or just walk up on the night.

@WillSmale1 common fallacy that San Miguel beer is Spanish! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/San_Migue… it's from the Philippines originally!

What equipment would be easiest to get hold of to do an unofficial bit of (non calibrated) monitoring?

@CommunitySpeedw hi there, what's the best way for us to confirm a gut feeling that drivers are going too fast on our street, to then look at putting pressure on authorities or to get a community speedwatch organised?

@OptaJoe @OptaAnalyst How's City's record looking these days? I feel like we are not good at all with pens, not since Elano played under Sven!

14 - Since Pep Guardiola's first season at Man City in 2016-17, they have missed the most Premier League penalties (14). Of the 16 teams to have taken 10+ in this period, they also have the worst success rate (65.9%). Wayward. We look at the key penalty stats for @OptaAnalyst ⬇️

@transconrace I'm kinda curious as to what's in her water bottles? Can't be orange juice can it?

Look who's back, and smiling. #TCRCapNo001 is always given to the last edition's Race winner. Fiona Kolbinger is ready to roll... #TCRNo8 #Transcontinental

It was quite nice, actually.

@cosmocatalano So after a bit of mild stalking, we are rather shocked to come to the conclusion that Cosmo Catalano might actually be your real name. If so, big hat to your parents, if not, hat to you for inventing it.

Pretty good distribution for a tin of @CadburyUK Roses here. Lots of caramel with golden barrels and caramel coming joint top with 10. #inequalitystreet
