I don't get benefits :(

Cheers bud! Got a little more info on it, it's double the money I'm on ATM, you get an NVQ in engineering of some sort, and I'll be working with a track gang between Penzance and Bristol, sometimes having to stop overnight at either end of the region. I think it's a day release to college...

With track rail. 12th October at 9am sharp. Found a cushdy little apprenticeship going in the company, not even 100% sure what it entails but we get a briefing and sort of an open day thing on the 12th, then get individually interviewed. It's bloody good money for an apprenticeship too :|...

It curves right after the Iron bridge to follow the a30 towards Indian Queens before curving right again to head down to Newquay. I drive along that road like 5 times a week lol.

That's well good that is! The journey planner is a bit better than the RAC one too, which told me to get to birmingham I had to leave the M5 at Junction 8 - which is the south wales turning :S

Urrr, even when I was fully into rail stuff I avoided "rail" like the plauge, it was cack. PD did my head in too, can't remember what it was but every time I read something by him it wound me up. I need to remember what it was that made me dislike him so much...

oooooooo makes any trip worthwhile!

Thanks for the advice, but isn't london a bit out of the way?

I need to go from bodmin - sheffield... I see virgin do a ticket for £22, what's the catch with this... ? Could I book it say 2 days before and just turn up and go, or what? Sorry for the n00bness, but I've always just bought tickets on the platform before... Any help muchos appreciated...

I found pirates

Cars are tougher than people think, me and the people in my car found and pulled 3 people out a rolled car on Wednesday night, car LOOKED like it was flattened, but the worst injury was a cut head. The driver deserves jail, level crossing incidents never cease to amaze me. An old dear broke...

Should have noted their reg number, phoned old bill and said you think they had a gun. There would have been armed police at the registered driver's door within 10 minutes.

Why yes they are, therefore I sold the bike to my brother :lol: T'was only an ickle 50cc anyways, but it was very tarty (and 05 reg, way newer than my old beast!) My car (left) and a kitted out version of the same car on the right. I want to swap. Going out to get some rail-related...

Neeeeeeeew bike outside my house 8)

It's an AX GT, they are rapid little 1400s, just a shame citroen make their car bodywork out of recycled kit-kat wrappers.
