Today's trip

Post by BIGRON »

Lovely journey getting there for free ( Elizebeth line and old bastards pass ) , great result πŸ‘πŸ‘ but nearly 5 hours getting home ☹️ got the bus outside the ground after 10 mins and on the Elizebeth line train as soon as we got to Reading station , that's when the fun started all good to West Drayton then halfway between stations the train stops , 1 and a quarter hours sitting there due to a trespasser on the track at Paddington πŸ€” then the train goes back to West Drayton and emptys out , bus ride of half an hour to Uxbridge and Metropolitan line from there to Liverpool Street and a bus home , got in at 5 past 10 ☹️☹️ now sinking a deserved few Cruzcampos 🍺🍺

Whoever they are they have a death wish . Two weeks ago I was on a train pulling into Liverpool St and noticed all the graffiti on a wall beside the track . How did they get there with all the cctv cameras . These people are utterly mad

Creative types are like that, you only have to look at CEB to see I'm right.

No need. Prescriptions are free for all in the sleepy Scotchlandshire backwaters.

They should give the freedom passes to us poor souls who have to commute on the trains and are pumping money into the economy.

Freight train broken down out of London into Essex causing delays. Not sure if it’s the other way as well.
I was in south Ken earlier and it was still a 40 min journey there. So f*cking long.
