From North West Leicestershire👍🏻
Been known to like railways, beer,cake, pasties, Cornwall, Devon, moaning etc etc
Bonkers about class 50’s
Drove one once & loved it
Also a Ferrari nut
Can’t stand Musk or his companion’s that’s why I defected
To top my trip off I got hit by a car exiting the car park
Probably less but felt like it was about 20mph
Unclipped my rear bumper & scuffed the paint.
Tried to fob me off with £50.
I know how much it costs to respray & fit a bumper especially in metallic paint

Gone through his insurance

Me & my sis

You’re not wrong Steve.

Take it you enjoyed Cornwall?

Talking of McClaren I reckon Piastri’s goose is cooked when it comes to the championship

When on the radio to the team he asked "what’s the plan then"?

The guy’s clueless & Norris is making him look so dull after a great start to the season

Best get out there and do the Meridians, remind yourselves of how comfy rail travel used to be

They boast of 19% more leg room, we’ll see

Still with over 3,900 hp the services will be super speedy🤔.

Started with 3 series
Then 2
Thought 5 but as far as I know they don’t do a 5 convertible
Like you I tried 8 on the last go
The rear light clusters looked newer that the year
That’s what stopped me from getting a clean sweep

Annoyingly satisfying quiz isn’t it

Staying put, incoming rain due around 09:45 in the area.
My days of going out & getting soaked for something are done

Red dot is Atherstone
Rain heading north🙁

Cheers Nami
I’d found out about the class 20’s but not 90002
RTT says 3 car so presumed it to be stock

Arse!
Never had that down as an * series
Rear lights fooled me on the year too as they looked modern
Got the maker first time

Thoughts and prayers to you

So from now on they’ll see a change in the way I work.

Everything done to the letter.

Nice & steadily

Let’s see what they say.

I wont be surprised if ideas that I suggested are poached & are quietly brought in to the workplace.

Management have a habit of doing that in my experience

When we did the Mazey day class 50 tour in June last year I noticed that the site had been levelled & looked like it had been rolled perfectly flat in readiness for buildings

Shame it was shut.
Would be ideal now for GWR & their DMU fleet.
