My January 2025 playlist
This month, I started making a playlist with a new tune added every day. I’m calling this project #TrackDay until I think of something better.
There is no theme; tracks chosen might be old or new, obscure or hits, cool or cringe. They just have to be something that caught the ear of this nerdy middle-aged man.
Now January is complete, I’ve used SongShift to make a Spotify version of the playlist too.

Walking the TfL map – 2 June

Walking the TfL map – 27 May
First walk in a long while. Taking advantage of the bank holiday to go through the Rotherhithe tunnel again when things aren’t too busy (it was still pretty grim though…)

Walking the TfL map – 07 March
Once of the nice things about the different bits of the Overground getting names is that it gives me more lines to cross off.
And on that note, the Mildmay line is now DONE.

Updating my walking map with the new names for the Overground lines
Okay, so I haven’t done any more walks, but I have now updated my progress map to include the newly-named Overground lines.
This also means that I can tick off 3 new lines: the Liberty, the Lioness and the Weaver.
Testing video uploads using micro.blog Premium
Just upgraded my micro.blog account to Premium and playing around with video uploads.
I’m torn about the maximum 75MB file size. I get the thinking and understand that this stops the cost getting out of hand and also discourages people posting long video content, but it was quite a faff scrunching this pretty short video down to size, and it has lost loads of quality. Uploading video using the iOS and Mac apps seems a bit temperamental too.
Walking the TfL map – 13 February
This one was a bit of a slog to be honest. Walking through drizzle to finish off the Northern line.

Walking the TfL map – 14th October
A little bit in Docklands before following the Dangleway south of the river. From there I walked to Woolwich and followed bits of the national rail line included on the TfL map.

Cleaning out a drawer and found this card from Jeremy Deller’s becausewearehere.co.uk
I am so old that (1) I just bought a CD player, and (2) I am using it to play a National Trust compilation of punk classics.
