A rare bit of self promo: I've been doing a radio show for the last year on a local station and it's been loads of fun. I've also devised the most "Me" feature, where I ask musicians to talk about a memorable place and pick a song. Here's an archive:

Absolutely fantastic thread. Endless consultation. Very little action.

We will share some thoughts on this in a week or so. In the meantime hereās a š§µon @NewcastleCC transport consultations.
Hint: we need more action more than we need more consultation.

I went for a run in Leazes Park last night. Thereās a loud contingent of football fans who are, once again, insisting itās run down and in poor state. Meanwhile, those of us who actually live near it and use it on a regular basis are just out, enjoying a beautiful autumn evening.

I enjoyed this new video by Type Ashton youtu.be/wkhxWteFcQ4?si=3zg9ā¦ - obviously US infrastructure is always on the extreme end but it made me think a lot about my own walks to school.

I had to cross this road, which might not look much but funnelled traffic from a whole side of Luton to the M1.
And the only crossing was 2-3 minutes in the wrong direction, so weād usually just wait for a gap and run. Lol cool

Sounds like police reckon the counter demonstration has upwards of 800 people here. This sign sums up much of the feeling here, currently.

More space for folk to move along the coast car-free, enjoy the views, fresh air, and local bars, cafes & shops, a more accessible and safer seafront, and a step towards a cleaner, greener, better future.
š to the first phase of the seafront sustainable route!
