These two photos sum up my impressions of #Peterborough so far, having only ever experienced it passing before whilst using its EV charging facilities

Look closely and it's quite pretty, just don't zoom out.

In widely-anticipated report, #AuditorGeneral #BonnieLysyk offered damning assessment o how province selected sites 4 removal from #Greenbelt — vast 810,000-hectare area o farmland, forest & wetland stretching from #NiagaraFalls 2 #Peterborough was meant 2 b off limits 2 development.

"Our review ... raises concerns about exercises used, way in which standard info gathering & decision protocols were sidelined & abandoned, & how changes 2 Greenbelt were unnecessarily rushed through"

I went to #Peterborough #Cathedral yesterday.

Haven't been out on my road bike much this summer, but it was nice to get out for a 52km ride today, & to make sure this little snapping turtle got across Beardsmore Rd. safely. #bike #Peterborough #turtles

In Peterborough, a derelict toilet block has been painted to celebrate local places of interest. The design is really impressive.

'No room for hate:' Peterborough police investigating spread of anti-Semitic flyers

>#Peterborough police say they are investigating after anti-Semitic flyers were distributed in the city over the weekend, following two similar incidents earlier this year.

One of mine.

The UK is dotted with public access defibrillators, all paid for by local individuals, charities, or companies. They are not officially provided. But you are rarely more than a 2 minute walk from one.

This one is on the wall of the local supermarket.

lmao what the fuck was that? The Penalty Box attendant, about 75 years old, got in the face of just turned 20 yr old Ryan Humphrey, told him to sit the fuck down, shut the fuck uo, and fuck off, belligerently.

Please fire that old fuck. All Ryan was doing was debating his penalty. And he was right.

To Ryans credit, he didnt escalate. The old guy was in his face.

On the train from #Peterborough to #York

Thought I would try the 'at your seat' refreshments service. It's not available today.

PS - this phone has a little vibrate when it starts charging. I have plugged into the charging socket at the seat.

Every time the train goes through a dead section in the 25kV overhead, my phone shivers. So the charging socket comes straight off the in-train substation, while the lights have a battery backup as well

I have just booked a #holiday in #York. First since before the pandemic!

I will be attending this:
https://yorkshow.org.uk/ - #ModelRailway exhibition at the #Racecourse

travelling up on the #LNER from #Peterborough on #GoodFriday and back again on #EasterMonday.

Unfortunately, my over-65 bus pass is not valid on the shuttle bus from the station to the racecourse. It will cost me £2 in each direction.

I decided to stay in a Hilton hotel, just inside the city walls.

"A collection of before-and-after photos"

In the #1980s, #ChrisPorsz took photos of everyday life in the English city of #Peterborough. 30 years later, he returned to the city - and produced a wonderful collection of before-and-after #photographs.

Probably my most glamorous location of the last three weeks. Homeward bound in the snow and paying for Ionity's luxury electricity.
