Congrats

I'm still working on cutting down/quitting as I work longer hours I feel the need to smoke less, but still have the odd few each day, mainly when I'm not doing anything

Apparently a flock of geese have turned up somewhere locally from Siberia, according to experts their arrival is early which is a sign we’re in for a bad winter (weather wise I assume :lol: ).

Happy Trafalgar Day!
Wikipedia wrote:
Trafalgar Day is the celebration of the victory won by the Royal Navy, commanded by Vice-Admiral Horatio Nelson over the combined French and Spanish fleets at the Battle of Trafalgar on 21 October 1805. The formation of the Navy League in 1894 gave added impetus to the movement to recognise Nelson's legacy, and grand celebrations were held in Trafalgar Square on Trafalgar Day, 1896. It was widely commemorated by parades, dinners and other events throughout much of the British Empire in the 19th century and early 20th century. It is still widely celebrated in navies of the Commonwealth of Nations.

Its public celebration declined after the end of World War I in 1918. The massive casualties and upheaval had changed the general public perception of war as a source of glorious victories to a more sombre view of it as a tragedy, for which the newly instituted Armistice Day on 11 November was created. However, Trafalgar day was still marked as a public day each year. Around 1993 it was rumoured that John Major's government might make it a public holiday in place of May Day, but nothing came of this.

Others have said it will be a bad winter. And with benefits cuts I wonder how many dead homeless there will be by the spring?

Hey yall!
question for the train loving people...

the Virgin website let me buy an offpeak train ticket from Euston to Coventry at 6pm. However the Euston people say it's not valid.
You can even book seats buying an offpeak ticket on these trains.

Is the rule that 16-25 card holders can take any virgin train still valid?


mmmm

Err.. How can they legally sell you a ticket for a specific journey that isn't valid?

Plonk yourself on the train, and if they argue A) you'll be out of London and B)argue back with the screenshot.
