Hailstone showers here, I was going to go & collect those bedside cabinets but the guy says he'll deliver them later today as we're local


Looks like the south west/south Wales are going to get hammered tomorrow with amber warnings reaching up to Manchester A big pot of vegetable soup on the go again.

They've upped the warning for the south west and south Wales to red. Need to nail your wig on Bob.

Looks like Ging is going to have bother getting home today as well. Checked earlier, normal service on the west coast but now saying everything is at a stand due to overhead wire damage at Lockerbie.

Blimey! What a nightmare for Ging.


It's gone dark as night here so I'm on TSW2 dahn sarf again on a Class 377 Eastbourne to Lewes, I overshot the first station by a few yards & it would have been a jump down on the track for passengers in the first carriage Points docked for that I think.

Checking the National Rail and Avanti West Coast websites there's nothing running north of Carlisle, no mention of buses either. Dunno what she's doing, can't get hold of her

If she can't get home today no idea what level of service there will be tomorrow although the worst of Eunice will be further south.

Update: she's currently en route to Carlisle, then across to Newcastle and up the east coast.

Least its not costing her anything! As my wife she gets the same free rail travel as I do, because of my length of service I/we retain it for life.

This is why she couldn't get north of Carlisle:
