    It's just been announced that Terry Hall (of The Specials, Fun Boy Three, The Colourfield etc) has died. Genuinely absolutely gutted. What a legend and a big hero of mine.

    I am travelling to Bletchley from Euston this afternoon and wondered when the last off peak train leaves Euston for Bletchley before peak rush hour. I noticed an off peak return is significantly cheaper than the peak return that is all. I am returning tonight about 11pm Thank You Tommy
