Is Google Maps' "mostly flat" suggestion one of the biggest lies on the Internet? This thought brought to your by #TNC25 in Brighton.

Not a redeye train but early enough for what would otherwise have been a long weekend with an attached public holiday.

Looking forward to catch up with collegues from all around in person at #TNC25 and do a fair bit of #TrustBuilding.
