Cycle parking on the West Schelde ferry. (Vlissingen to Breskens). Lots of cycles on the water taxi from Dordrecht to Rotterdam too.

I can recommend cycling in the Netherlands. I have not done it myself, but the cycling network is amazing. You can hire cycles at the Hoek van Holland if you travel by ferry.

Eindhoven station 🤣

He is now giving it some beans up to Norwich. Catching up a bit. Might have time for tea and bacon butty before our train to LWT

Tried it when we got off the ferry. 🤔

Disruption near London slowed things down, so 8 minutes in the end.
Freight slowed the Norwich train down approaching Ipswich.

7:09 from HPQ. GA only gives you 3 minutes to change at Manningtree on their App. That is pushing it a bit! 😕

GA isn't too bad, but mobile signals are crap once you are out in the sticks, so while the phone is connected to WiFi the train may not be connected to anything.
