Some experience & expertise in rail signal engineering. Deep interest in transport, economy, environment & human behaviour. Belief in love, compassion & deserved respect.
Sat in @sainsburys.bluesky.social cafe, Willows, Torquay for nr. 45mins. Waiting for a gap in constant counter queue to order another coffee. Seating well over 50% occupied. Can't believe it's uneconomic & if it closes, where am I going to wait for my elderly neighbour I go shopping with?

15:05 GWR Plymouth departure from Paddington today. Full & standing due to previous cancellations. Only came back from Grantham via London due to EMR & XC cancellations earlier. Lucky Paddington has the country end footbridge entrance to platforms or I probably wouldn't have got a seat.

My word of the day (and personal recommendation) is ‘snerdling’ (18th century): nestling cosily beneath the covers and holding off the day a little longer.
Morning.
