Train cancelled again, ('shortage of crew') - and no power in the carriage (despite attempts to fix it) - just another bright Avanti West Coast morning! Will they do a double-header and cancel my return later? Watch this space! [repeated wailing]
“A special day for Scottish football…” in which Celtic reach another final. BBC Sport Scotland in plucky wee Aberdeen mode…
Playing the Swift album backwards: numerous references to Hugh MacDiarmid’s A Drunk Man Looks at the Thistle…. #torturedpoets
And, Avanti West Coast , I’m going to persist here. Why, on routes through the West Midlands, do those of us travelling north have to now wait for 20 mins at Birmingham? This is effectively a change. It’s disingenuous to label the train “direct” - why do London routes go non-stop?
another dread Avanti West Coast sign: '9 coaches' all the way to Scotland (which means only 5 standard class carriages....and a guaranteed jampacked festival of pain)
