#SouthWesternRailway (SWR) has been renationalised, making it the first train company to transfer to public ownership under Labour. The first nationalised service, from #Woking to #Surbiton, departed [today ...] at 05:36.
[...]
Seven more companies will be renationalised by 2027 as each of their contracts end – or sooner if their performance is judged to be unacceptable.

#today my son is a #ballboy on centre court at the #Surbiton Trophy with #AndyMurray playing!

My thanks to the anonymous biker who spotted my motorcycle keys n the ignition (I'm such a dumbass) in #Surbiton and handed them to the @TorqueElectric shop who when closing then handed them into Megan's Cafe next door, and left a note.

I got them back.

Good people. Thank you.

If you live in Surbiton and haven’t been to the Pickled Pantry, you’re a damn fool to yourself.

The Mister has been stressed to fuck since we moved further into London. One bite of his sausage and bacon sandwich and all the cares in his world were gone.

It’s amazing what a good breakfast can do. #Surbiton #Cafe #Food #coffee

Rush-hour #5k through Surbiton last night #running #surbiton #keepfit

Must admit that’s a rather good name for an Indian restaurant once you know how it is pronounced… In #Surbiton.

From this to the wreck it is now

LibDems in #Kingston have allowed this to happen under their noses at Seething Wells in #Surbiton #GreenSpaces

A #biodiversity wasteland now

Thames Water engineers had to divert an angry pig that was preventing them repairing burst pipes in #Surbiton, causing major disruption to trains and road traffic (this is not a rural area but the middle of suburban #London !)

The pig was placated with a packet of crisps 😁 🐷
