The Train Stops at Witham

Despite being informed by an Adviser on the phone I would be back in Colchester at 02:18 if I left London at 01:00 it was closer to 04:00. Thomas Charles Whitman and I started at a micro brewery in Blackheath got a taxi to Liverpool St at midnight, then got a bus to Stratford, then a train to Chelmsford, then a bus to Witham, then a train to Colchester. Thank god I had a North Face, a Maccy D's and Mr Whitman for the banter..... A couple of questions remain outstanding from the evening - just what was that smell on the bus to Witham and who the hell was that bloke heading to Felixstowe/what did he do when he got to Colchester?

Good Luck Santa

An amusing way for Santa to travel - saw him this weekend in Manningtree. All the best to him.

I'm still standing...

Got on a train this morning at 08:15 as I had hoped to get a standard class seat to do a spot of editing. Instead I had to use the vestibule space in 1st class to edit on the floor. Booooo.

A seat!!!

I get a seat on the Train on Wednesday.

(Saturday) Weekend Travel

Although amusingly I heard that there were no trains running today between Norwich and Ipswich despite it being the football derby!
