  1. Do I know anyone in #LondonUK or the nearby areas? I'm looking at a little #WestEnd #theatre getaway as my summer #vacation this July, and would love recommendations of activities and hidden gems.

    In particular, any must-try restaurants or great dayhike destinations? Fun museums and galleries beyond the obvious ones? And any queer (especially sapphic but not exclusively) spots not-to-be-missed?

  2. Huh, looks like #bluesky is having a fairly major outage, been down for a couple of hours it seems, at least to me in #LondonUK

  3. #godspeedyoublackemperor absolutely mesmerising at #LondonUk #Troxy tonight - never seen anything like this at that scale. Extraordinarily controlled slow-moving but visceral music. Blimey.

  8. This is possibly my favourite shop in #LondonUK if not the world. Brothers greengrocers in #Dulwich

    Stocks the most incredible, comprehensive, seasonal range of fruit & veg of anywhere. Just lovely

  9. Bit of an announcement: I am standing for election to #Lewisham Council in #LondonUK this May for the #GreenParty in the ward of #Sydenham

    I've changed my bio to include an imprint which is required by UK electoral law.

    I'll still be posting about music and cycling as well as election-related stuff but got to be compliant!

  11. Photos from far away (row B, circle) of the stupendous #DavidByrne concert in #LondonUk #HammersmithApollo tonight. What a gig! Lot more Talking Heads material than the previous American Utopia tour had me in tears for first few songs. That I would live to hear David play Nothing But Flowers. Extraordinary

  12. Was just reading about someone saying #LimeBikes can be drafted up hills when #cycling non-e-assist bikes in #LondonUK and it made me reflect that most of my #Strava goals entail being able to ride at >25kph up pretty much every hill making this hack redundant!

    London bad. London scawy.

    Or at least you'd think so if you believed right-wing AI slop and lies. Fear and faking is what they're all about.

  22. Very limited coffee currently available at #KingsCross rail station #LondonUK for some unknown reason. Both Pret and Cafe Nero shut. Weird, and annoying as I was hoping for my first of the day here.

    Get ready to see the wild side of our cities! Artists are turning cold walls and old silos into a massive zoo full of color. These animals are large and ready to say hello.

  28. I’d really like to attend the #StandUpToRacism demo to counter the #TommyRobinson march tomorrow but I’m genuinely concerned about safety traveling home to south #LondonUK afterward, given that the #FarRight demo is all in the south part of central London from where my train departs. Bet half the knuckleheads live in #Kent too (sorry Kent folk, I know many of you are great people!)

  29. Anyway, back in my lane, had to inform two cyclists this morning at #GreenwichFootTunnel that #LimeBikes don't work in the tunnel. Also, if the lift is out it is extremely difficult to carry one of those 30kg bikes up the stairs. The number you see abandoned down there speaks to a real lack of common sense in my opinion

  37. I love road #cycling but where I live in southeast #LondonUK you really have to kind of steel yourself to get out there on the bike. You'll be sharing roads with distracted drivers on their phones, mainly looking out for other vehicles, and actual psychopaths who hate you. It requires some guts. Don't feel like doing it everyday.

  38. Got my bike serviced at The Cyclery in #Lewisham - what a great shop. Feels like a new bike now. Expert mechanics.

  39. Does anyone know the details of why the lifts (elevators) at the #Woolwich and #Greenwich foot tunnels under the #Thames are so often out of order? I mean I guess the broad reason is lack of money for maintenance but is there a specific reason, is it something that can be fixed, or is this just a case of crumbling Victorian infra that will never work well?
