Timbo - yeah! right! that makes me feel so much better...

backroads - time is a concept by which we measure our pain.

Yesterday, only six minutes late, but it was a crap class 142 (They're those horrid bus-things with uncomforable seats and no suspension) instead of the usual electric train. Do you get those horrors on your route?

Ha! Tim, horrid bus things is ALL we get!!!

(And we think it's our lucky day if it's a nice yellow one that says 'mersey rail' on it - slightly more padding on the benches)

A scouse train is 'lucky'?

I remember when they were brand new. The first ones were used in Devon and Cornwall, and they were horrid then.

They lasted 18 months in Cornwall before the locals got sick of their inability to go up hills or round sharp corners.

we don't have hills or sharp corners.

that probably explains something.

Thanks Jamie.
I'd say 'glad to be back', but I'm not sure if I am yet!
