Appreciate this is a first world problem, but why (in 2026) is the WiFi/network coverage on the UK railway network so bad to the point it's completely unusable

Imagine the amount of hours of productivity we'd gain as a country if we could just connect to our emails now and then

TW // Suicide

Four years ago today I lost one of my oldest friends

I wish I could wind back the clock and tell him how wonderful he was. The hole that his loss left in so many people's lives will never be filled, but his memory will live on forever

I miss you

RIP Jack FF 💛
