Do you schedule this tweet so it goes out every morning, safe in the knowledge that it’s almost certainly going to be true? Why not just pin it?
At least you can count on @districtline being reliable... it’s just reliably broken at least once or twice a week.. @TfL will still increase the ticket prices for the pleasure..
