    I was very pleased with the speed and reliability of trains over the last few days..

    I'm fucking not.

    On 16:13 KX to Lincoln. Currently 42 mins behind schedule and no food / drink service due to staff shortage. Apparently.

    Bit worried I'm turning a bit Shady.

    And now it's terminating at Newark due to significant delay.

    Trains are shit. Next time I'm driving. I don't give a fuck if office is in Central London.

    Trying to pack. It's tricky. Quite a bit of heavy rain forecast for Portugal and it's 13 ish degrees. Want to wear Forest shirt, but practically probably best to wear a jumper and raincoat.

    Newark to Newcastle and back. Total delays about 10 minutes. Maybe you guys are just picking the wrong trains?

    Is it against the law to consider wearing a shirt, a jumper, and a coat, in yorkshire?

    I am on a replacement coach service with the great unwashed. I haven't been on a coach since about 1998 as a poor student. I think it could be the same one actually.

    Wondering what I was thinking being all ethical and not getting a 50 quid taxi all the way home and charging expenses.

    The roads are also utter shit. I’ve never had to do motorway driving for work but have used them a lot more recently ferrying my son around for various football matches he’s playing in. Maybe I’ve been unlucky but I’ve been stuck in slow moving traffic and at a standstill on journeys more often than not and wondered how the fuck people do that on a regular basis for work.

    What's the point of wearing a Forest shirt if nobody is going to see the mighty Garibaldi red.

    ECML is for winners, that's the common theme here.

    You'll know.

    You might go somewhere hot where you can take the other stuff off.

    You can rip the coat and jumper off and dance around when we score an injury time winner

    Just boarded the plane from Luton to Lisbon. Roughly 50% Forest fans.
