@networkrail Is there any way to get a public response to this, pls? Can log it but it shouldn't be my responsibility to share the outcome publicly. @networkrail should be updating community. Last we were told in Jan is it would be replaced by Apr 2024 but no progress at all. @SurreyCouncil

@mralexbarr Hi, I have looked on our system and unfortunately I am unable to find up to date information on when this will open back up. This would need to be logged through to the local team for them to look into this. Please DM your contact details if you would like this to be logged ^DG twitter.com/messages/compo…

@networkrail when are you going to replace the Castle Road footbridge in Epsom? It has been closed for nearly 18months. People's lives are being impacted by the restricted access to green space and the town centre for those with reduced mobility and young children.

@networkrail @networkrail the accessible public right of way which has been closed for 18months is footpath 67 in Surrey, Castle Road footbridge, can you please provide a response here rather than me DM so this info is open to the community impacted, given lack of any other public updates?

@networkrail I've been in touch with your team the whole time and never had any useful information back. We were last promised the bridge would be replaced in April and have heard nothing since then.

@richardosman Not Simply Red?

Just discovered that the ITV Election Debate will be filming next door to our House Of Games recordings next week. Already looking forward to the mix-up which sees Keir Starmer winning a fondue set while Rishi Sunak argues about National Service with Antony from Blue.

@hughmannwright @JohnSpringford Isn't it more like getting off an express line train and getting on the one behind?

@JohnSpringford A bit like changing track... From the express line to the local stopper line...

@EpsomEwellBC FPTP is fucking stupid

@networkrail It has now been a year since you closed the footbridge over the railway line at Castle Road in Epsom. There is still no sign of a replacement coming any time soon. Why is it taking so long?

@jburnmurdoch Surely pay and other mentioned retention factors are two sides of the same coin?

NEW: we need to talk about NHS staff retention. At a time when Britain’s healthcare system is acutely short of workers, *1 in 7* UK-trained doctors are practising overseas. No other developed country is like this, which immediately tells you there’s a problem. Let’s dig deeper:

@richardosman ... annoy less, grammar pedants.

My New Year's Resolution is to annoy less grammar pedants.

@StolenRide My Giant Escape 1 Disc (2019, XL frame) was stolen from the bike parking area at Epsom Station on 22/12/23 some time between 11:00 and 22:00.

@bglendenning Which law are you referring to Barry?

@s8mb Ours is now £99 per day - you're lucky!

It costs £21,060 a year for full-time childcare for one child, and that's low-end for inner London. It is really strange that 99% of the political discussion about childcare focuses on subsidising it instead of making it cheaper. beechcroftdaynursery.co.uk/our-fees/

@StateOfLinkedIn Shower before gym?

Good morning to all of you who didn’t get out of bed at 3:45 this morning

@au_tom_otive @TfL It has nothing to do with CO2

ULEZ is a joke until @TfL sorts out its data. Euro 4 diesel clearly not compliant, but according to TfL, this 15-year old, 3.6-litre diesel Range Rover with CO2 emissions of 299g/km meets the current criteria. There are going to be some pretty interesting court cases coming up…

@shadesofblueUS @SkySportsPL Fallen off a cliff from 3rd all the way down to 3rd.

BREAKING: The nominees for the Premier League Barclays Manager of the Season award are in! 🥁

@ACJSissons @laurenorso Any analysis accounting for additionally? Also, 12k kWh heating per year seems high due to insulation/EPC requirements.

The full data for the first year of the Boiler Upgrade Scheme came out today, so @laurenorso and I have had a dig into it. How has the flagship heat pump subsidy gone in its first year? Tl;dr - slowly, but with signs of promise nesta.org.uk/data-visualisa…

@plumbers_urban @RetrofitRuss @melectriccar @GarethParris Any need to insulate around edges?

@RetrofitRuss @mralexbarr @melectriccar @GarethParris Not a problem at all. Downward loses are not that big

25mm latex over UFH at 100mm center going on

@plumbers_urban @melectriccar @GarethParris How much of a problem is this?

@melectriccar @GarethParris Not insulated
