@alexhornbyrail@northernassist@Merseytravel My mum used to take me down to the station to watch the trains while my dad was away shooting down down buzz-bombs.
After that it was all aeroplanes, so l arrived at English Electric Traction by chance knowing nothing about railways.
(No snarky comments on "no change there then")
I guess I was always destined to work on the railway. At 4 years old, I was very excited to be taken to watch the trains at my local station, and then very sad when it was time to go home…

Quit posting Bullshit lies about our military.
.@u105 Tuned in earlier just in time to hear an extremely flat sounding @MauriceJay playing Kelly Clarkson’s ‘Since U Been Gone’. With no @SportyNeesy by his side for the past few days, it’s got me thinking. I’ll be listening to this weekend’s programme line-up with interest. 🤔

@delboyonline@adamsherwin10@malprin@radioriley@theipaper@BoomRadioUK Thank you for posting the article here. It does show Radio 2 has shifted its audience in recent years. But that audience has changed. Radio 2 is playing the music of the near past (80`s onwards etc.) and more current trends. A lot todays acts get their first airing on Radio 2.

@ringroads@nexta_tv You better say nothing. There is no UK anymore. You let muslims take your country away. It's UK Caliphate now. Poor You! You are dominate by Islam. Where are you, proud Britan?
@ajoajoajoaj@ringroads@nexta_tv Maybe you will tell about your ancestors who murdered 300k Polish women and children in Volyn? Or maybe about ukrainian SS Galizien who served for A.Hitler killing polish soldiers after Warsaw Uprising?
@nexta_tv Oh the irony, when Orban was elected, & Ursula Von der Lenin & the EU commissars are unelected, & so is that unelected corrupt little bastard Zelensky they support.
And when the EU dictators are rigging elections around Europe.
