To the @SouthernRailUK driver who pulled into West Norwood, saw me standing on the wrong platform, watched me realise and sprint with a buggy out of the station and around it, and then reopened the doors even though he’d already closed them, I wish only good things for you always

Going to have to mute this now, but I cannot believe how many people have liked and engaged with this! Especially astonished that the train driver’s wife saw this and showed him 😊 I just thought it was A Nice Thing, and it turns out the people want Nice Things.

And I know he saw me do those things, because he stopped me at London Bridge for a good-natured, and well-deserved chuckle at my expense. Only. Good. Things.

Yesterday, my daughter did an impression of me leaving for work. It involved running round and round in circles shouting 'I need to go to work, I need to get the train.' She then tripped and fell over, still not sure if that was part of it. 10/10 no notes.

Joe Wicks is trending this morning. Every time he trends, which is pretty frequently these days, I'm reminded of the time a couple of years ago when I was working at an awards ceremony, and he arrived with his team. I walked over to greet him, and said 'Hi, I'm Joe Wicks.'

Out of office on, handover sent... Now off on mat leave! You'll find me lumbering heavily around, frantically cleaning things and trying to 'relax', and then, eventually sobbing over an infant. NGL, looking forward to being able to put my shoes on unattended again.
