I reckon this is the best night's sleep I've ever had on the Caledonian Lowlander. Now for a very civilised breakfast in the @diningcar

Ugh https://select2.org

@gilesdring always happy to be a rubber duck 😆 I find incorporating jQuery into modern stuff can be really tricky, much as I still rate jQuery, it can be a party pooper

jamesjefferies,
@jamesjefferies@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@gilesdring I’ve used that in a few places over the years, would be nice to use something better! 😆

@gilesdring meep!

@jamesjefferies@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@gilesdring oh dear, I’ve used it with a bootstrap theme (I know) and the multi-select tag thing and it seemed to do the job quite well - makes for flaky tests though 😬

I love the sound of the wind rushing over a pantograph at high speed when you are sitting directly underneath it. Smells like... Victory

View from a train travelling at 125mph, and looking up at the roof which is lower to accommodate the pantograph well

@partim ok Martin, what’s your top three bits to visit? 😃

jamesjefferies,
@jamesjefferies@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@25kV I’ve a vague feeling it came from one of the early issues of Rail Enthusiast which I devoured as a kid - will see if I can find it

@partim @25kV been to Switzerland twice for train fun and yet have never been on an ICN!

@25kV I was on a TPE 397 coming back from Glasgow last week and crumbs, the thunk of the circuit breaker - I kept on thinking that a massive suitcase had fallen off a high rack! Still, interesting to know where the neutral sections are. Do they still drop the pan for a neutral section?

@partim @25kV I usually stick to the less Frenchy bits because my French is terrible 😆

@25kV here you go, Rail Enthusiast, August/September 1981 - doh!

Exactly the sort of chap you'd expect to see on a narrow gauge railway.

Increasingly waking up with . Went online for solutions. Breathing exercises. (Don’t do nearly enough.) Get more sleep. (Interrupted by anxiety!) Drink enough water. (I do.) Improve gut health/flora. (NHS has mucked me around for over a decade now re increasingly debilitating gut/allergy conditions. No help whatsoever.)

It’s a lovely morning outside. I just wish my physical self wasn’t blocking my mental self from seeing it. :/ ☀️

@craiggrannell with you on this one, talking therapy helped me a bit, plus some strategies around writing down weekly tasks & not being afraid to put some things off with a deliberate target - “will think about that in 6 months” - but my main message is to say, I’m sorry and you’re not alone!

jamesjefferies,
@jamesjefferies@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@craiggrannell Ach crap, that’s awful, here’s hoping you can turn a corner asap

jamesjefferies,
@jamesjefferies@mastodon.me.uk avatar

@craiggrannell yes, I can appreciate that too! I think there is so much unknown about gut/microbiome stuff that there is a collective professional shrug around helping people change their situation rather than leaving them to just try and cope - very frustrating

Hmm, Adobe no longer supports TTF (true type fonts) but Google fonts provide Roboto in TTF format - seems a bit wonky donkey :(

@threedaymonk oh dear - I wish I'd been around when someone chose it for our brand's main typeface 😕.
