GFX: #cathspeight
Teacakes: model’s own

@GWRHelp Don’t be ridiculous - you’re absolutely world class at delaying trains! Believe in yourself!

[maxdeveson @maxdeveson]

@GWRHelp Hi - I need to get to Cholsey but my 1720 from Paddington was cancelled. I’ve managed to get a train going to Reading but will be a few mins late to make the interchange with the 1759 Reading- Cholsey. Could you delay that departure so people on this train can make that change?

@portraitinflesh Irvine Welsh showed incredible inventiveness with form, but Danny Boyle just lit a match under it. Slow Horses - books are great (and the original idea of following the lives of reject spies is genius) but they are a bit pleased with themselves. Scripts and acting make them sing.

Great thread on the stunning new Bon Iver song, and why Justin Vernon is so much better than his many imitators

Bon Iver has gone back to the cabin…he has put away the vocoder…he is folky and whistful once more…all is right in this most perfect of worlds

It's fortunate we have cinema. Otherwise what would be the point in anyone looking like Alain Delon?
