  1. Today’s morning walk meant I got to spot a roosting barn owl. Wouldn’t have seen that if I were sat in a metal box on wheels - another reason to much prefer an active #FakeCommute to an actual commute in the car.

  5. My fake commute was a lot nicer with far fewer cars - shame that was only achievable by being up an hour and a bit earlier than normal… thanks, unplanned and unwanted wakefulness!

    It didn’t show up in the photo, but I could see Orion low in the sky for the first time this winter.

  9. Nice crisply cold fake commute this morning. Not too many automobiles, a beautiful flyover of seven geese, a close bare-eyed view of a handsome carrion crow… half an hour and I head off to donate platelets, always a worthwhile way to use up half a day of annual leave.

  13. An hour and a quarter’s #FakeCommute got me through about an hour of the Podcast I was listening to as I kept having to pause and rewind because even with the volume at maximum I couldn’t hear it over the cars and lorries. FFS, makes me want to #BanCars before I go totally deaf. It would be so much #NicerWithoutCars.

  18. Nice to have the energy to drag myself out for a #FakeCommute this morning, and to need my long coat and trilby to keep the long-overdue rain off.
    It’d be #NicerWithoutCars though. I can barely hear #TheWarOnCars podcast through my headphones.

  23. “Surgeons say they are seeing increasing numbers of injuries caused by e-bikes, both with riders and pedestrians.” Silent and deadly. The wretched e-scooters are just as bad. #JustWalk if you can or wheel carefully!

  28. I believe the phrase is #FFS

    While “fortunately” there were pedestrian refuges a bit to each side so I could cross the busy road twice to get past safely it was very slow due to the volume of motor traffic

  32. A couple of days ago I finished reading Rebecca Solnit’s “Wanderlust: A History of Walking”. I’m still digesting it, it was really good - written around the turn of the century (this one, in case like me until recently that makes you think start of the twentieth! Oh god how are we in the 21st century?) it is a book that expects you to think rather than spoonfeeding.

    It covers the emergence of walking as a thing in itself rather than just what everyone does to move, engaging with questions of meaning, politics and gender in relation to that. It also touches on the alienating nature of car travel in separating us from one another and the world around us.

    It is well worth reading: highly recommended. I’m going to have to add some more of Rebecca Solnit’s works to my book-hoard: they all look interesting.
