Also good in a Brendan Foster commentary voice, à la Douglas Wakiihuri

Just back from a long weekend on the coast of north-eastern Germany with very similar feelings. Good infrastructure, joined-up thinking, everything broadly works. Also drove to Poland on Saturday morning for parkrun and breakfast on the beach promenade, and (as I felt in Warsaw last year) the place has a quietly prosperous feel to it. I'm aware we were mostly in well-maintained beach resort towns which aren't representative of the two countries as a whole, but we're talking about places that were behind the Iron Curtain not that long ago, and now they're miles ahead of what we have here, frankly (as much as I do love a slightly tatty British seaside town). That said and if it's any consolation, the new Berlin airport already feels old and the German railways are a total shambles these days, so at least we have that in common.

I remember one of the fanzines reprinted a French newspaper article from before the 1994/95 UEFA Cup draw where the headline was literally "Anyone but Newcastle". Nice to be spoken about in that way again.

I think if you replace "x.com" with "twitter.com" it should still work. Blame Elon, basically. -
And it all works because of denpressure.
