Martin's kindness,generosity and wisdom will not be forgotten. In our first conversation, he said "talk to anyone, you never know what you'll learn", and that's stuck with me - the world would be a better place if everyone was as warm spirited as he was. We'll miss him very much.

Nothing like the week before Christmas for a reminder that @ScotRail buckle under the tiniest bit of pressure and can't provide a big enough train for anywhere that isn't Glasgow.
Hey @HeathrowAirport why even have multiple terminals if you can't manage the connections between them, so people don't miss connecting flights? Your little shuttle buses running "every 10 minutes" are late and slow
How godlike an experience is it to be the @ScotRail driver who, when a toddler hopefully and dutifully waves at the train going by, gets to be the one to honk the horn and make them go berserk?
