Strange but true tales - I caught an earlier train than usual on the high Speed into St Pancras.
Next to the tracks on the approach to the platforms there are lots of shiny new flats being built, some of which are occupied.
Being nosey I was clocking the décor of the flats as we passed, and in one was a naked woman getting dressed, and seemingly oblivious to the 7:36 rumbling past her window
The 7:36 will now become my regular trainLeave a comment:

Woke up this morning to the sound of rain beating against the window.
Got all dressed up, went outside, no rain, not a cloud in the skyLeave a comment:

Train on time at 1 minute late. Class 150. Obnoxious semidrunk present. Never any BTP around when you need one. Apparently I'm a miserable **** but I think we all knew that already.Last edited by zeitghost; 28 August 2016, 22:33.Leave a comment:

Dark,
Wetter than wet. Hammering down and sideways.
Was woken by a tremendous crash noise at 04:30.
Might have been a tree down.
Waiting for daylight to see the damage, hoping it was just thunder......Leave a comment:

Washed out sunshine is fighting a rear guard action against the drizzle. Got to admire its pluck.Leave a comment:
