A BBC news article ≠ "no impact" In fact I don't know where this idea of protests solely being about "stopping something from happening at that particular time and place", and if it doesn't achieve that it's billed as being a failure, has come from? This absolute nobody has managed to get a...

There's always this weird view that Victoria is out in the sticks - it's a shorter walk to Primark (and indeed the entire retail heart of Manchester) than Piccadilly, and it's an equal walking time to the centre of NQ from both too. There's a lot that can be done to highlight that Victoria...

I think it's a pretty out of date term for...well...food and drink. I much prefer straight-to-the-point and clear terms on signage. I'm sure "Toilets" hasn't always been the term of choice too, but things move on, in this case I feel for the better.

Deansgate is a fantastic station for connectivity to Metrolink - the walk from Oxford Road to St Peter's Square feels like much more of a faff - and it's vastly superior to Piccadilly when it comes to the number of lines served. I think that's it's real place in the future of the cities...

The issue in my eyes is it doesn't achieve that goal - the typeface used for the wording is far less connected to the Arriva period than the "frowning face" - and the "by Arriva" strapline always blended in to the background. Front and centre in the minds of people to whom you'd like to assure...

Surely a change to ticketing being only defined by time and route, without TOC specific tickets, will be a simplification? Is there a chance we'd see them continue under a new system?

At the "peak" of swine flu we were seeing around 5 deaths a day. When the UK was at that level of fatalities from COVID-19, we were simply being told to wash our hands. Now we're seeing nearly 600 fatalities in one day. So of course we're seeing stronger measures in place to combat it. Take...

Do you have any proof you work for the employer, say an ID badge or wage slip? And is it obvious from the name/ID that it's an employer that has essential staff?

I can 100% recommend the TicWatch C2 - a great size (not a monster like some others), Google Pay, a nice shortcut button to add your own favourite app, and a really decent price :smile: EDIT - I will second the point made in the post below this, if battery life is important to you, you'll...

Very wooly when it comes to social distancing guidelines from first look - avoid restaurants, pubs and theatres "where possible" - when is it impossible to avoid being a customer of these places?

I know Metrolink trialled both letters and numbers (and I'm sure at one point there were different numbers for different directions on the map), but then they were dropped. I'm not sure they really utilised them other than on the maps themselves. The current colours only seem to feature on the...
