That is bad branding. Really bad branding.

Felt rather easily amused at the library earlier

My wife is busy being superhuman again you see. She plans and does stuff before I even realise said stuff needs doing. Lots of stuff at one time too. Planning the Easter Holidays this time.

Women are brilliant.

Hearing the original Fireman Sam intro in german has to be one of the most bizzare things i've ever listened too (in a good way)

@fiago7 Adidas have realised the value of turning kits into fashion, particularly with the trefoil and retro styled away kits. They’re tapping into something that Nike seem to have less access too, maybe because they lack the same heritage.

Nike World Cup shirts just all look the same don‘t they? Compare that to Adidas it‘s actually shocking

Been at Haywards Heath eight minutes and already seen three freights. The booked early morning aggregates shunting for Ardingly, plus two held here for a possession overrun down Newhaven Marine way. Not used to seeing so many diesel locos at once round these parts! 😂

@SteelCityDog_ Clearly, they’re absolutely desperate for wins to sell to the public. It’s not a good sign if they’re resorting to things that can be seen through so easily.

@BMLBod They did the same with the 195s, do none of the work, take all of the credit.

With respect, that’s complete tosh. Nationalisation had nothing to do with it.

Alas

Downtown Abbey Suite on my Spotify daily mix now in my ears as I fly over the Ouse Valley Viaduct in my beautifully dark green Great Western liveried Gatwick Express train. I’m half hoping to arrive into Haywards Heath circa 1919….

Gatwick Airport expansion and a major new Universal Studios theme park in Bedfordshire but the government doesn’t see the issue in not funding removal of the long-standing Windmill Bridge bottleneck on the Brighton Mainline? bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

#OnThisDay 57 years ago, Snow Hill Tunnel between Farringdon and Blackfriars closed. It reopened 19 years later as Thameslink and is now one of the most important rail links in London. A goods train passes the former Snow Hill station in 1954: R C Riley buff.ly/Zdqo1ck

The hotel in Mauritius where I stayed on my honeymoon had both European and UK plug sockets, one of the only obvious benefits of Imperialism I’ve ever seen, given that majority of the hotel guests were either British or French.

Pfft, no. For once, we’re still ahead of you at something.

Well, I don’t know how much of an issue that would be as XC isn’t wildly popular at present.

@ShumBaloo I don’t understand what automation of trains has to do with this trespass incident? The driver of that train stopped it outside the station and made a REC call.

@BMLBod And surprise surprise... For any story like this the ASLEF on line army are alerted and appear with a puff of brake dust to argue for keeping the well paid drivers jobs. It's so predictable

Thankfully no one was hurt and disruption was minimal thanks to the train you see, with headlights flashing to indicate an emergency, making a REC call and bringing other trains in the immediate area to a stand.
