The main #RailwayStation is #Totnes is on the main line from #London #Paddington to #Penzance. There’s also a minor connecting line which has a much smaller station, which is sort of like a #museum. You can get to it via a #footbridge.

We went for a short visit to to #Totnes, which is a small rural town in #Devon. It’s only about half an hour by #train. It is on the #RiverDart, which shares its name with places like #Dartmoor and #Dartmouth. There’s a nice walk along the #Dart and here can see an old #masonry #arch #bridge which connects the town to the other side.

#Exeter Library is rolling out donation points for electronic waste like laptops and phones to be refurbished and passed on to those experiencing digital poverty. Items are accepted between 11am and 1 pm on weekdays, which honestly isn't the most accessible for people who work too far from the library to easily get there on a lunchbreak, but it's a start.

Donation points will also be available at #Cullompton, #Totnes, #Tiverton and #Barnstaple libraries

The repair cafe my brother volunteers at in #Totnes #Devon will be running this event on the 18th of April https://www.shareshed.org.uk/events/? and are looking for volunteers to install Linux on people's laptops. If anyone's in the area and interested there's a form to fill out at the link.

I'll be there too teaching coil basketry, and I promise I'm moderately normal in real life and definitely not one of those axe murderers you meet on the internet.
