Thank you for the replies Looking at the options it defaults to Best Value and changing to one of the others didn't, apart from a higher price, change the outcome. Interesting that selecting First Class didn't change the service chosen when I originally bought the tickets but does now I'll...

We have used the link to buy tickets (we have a 2 Together card ) and am interested to know how it decides which service to take We are travelling on Monday 31st July from Oulton Broad North to London Euston via Norwich - Oulton Broad Dep 9:52 Norwich arr 10:32 There is a service to London...

Thank you for your replies The journey is to Oulton Broad South changing at Ipswich The ticket issuer and GA both imply a later arrival at Ipswich then originally shown - as long as we get home I'm not worried about times but wanted to make sure that the tickets would be ok to travel on...

First my apologies for posting in the wrong place Trip is on Sunday 30th April London Liverpool St service to Norwich at 15:30 there are works between Ingatestone and Marks Tey, a bus service is in use so we will miss the planned connecting service so will be on a later one Ticket is...

I have return tickets booked which are split tickets and the return journey has a service change which means we would not make the booked connection The tickets for that portion of the trip are Off-Peak returns - would I be correct in thinking we can just take the next train ?

Thanks for the reply - the staff said that it had only affected the one coach which tallied with what other passengers said so I wonder if that carriage is more susceptible ?

We were on the Fort William service somewhere near Helensburgh (from RTT times - 6:36) and the smoke alarms went off in our carriage, hosts explained that it happened before on that carriage and it was due to dust from the ballast getting into the alarms Anybody else had that ? For breakfast we...

The 97% of "climate scientists" was debunked several years ago We’ve all been subjected to the incessant “97% of scientists agree …global warming…blah blah” meme, which is nothing more than another statistical fabrication by John Cook and his collection of “anything for the cause” zealots.

Made the private companies involved a few bob though I wonder how many donated to political parties ? The problem is that the government is blinkered to "Wintel" solutions and doesn't think outside that box

The point is we all deal in generalisations rather than specifics and sadly many peoples perception of cyclists is of the "clubs" clad in fluorescent lycra taking up the road space a juggernaut usually occupies with a queue of vehicles behind them Of course you get the singletons or much...

I find it ironic that cyclists are unwilling to use shared footpaths and cycle paths because it will slow them down and yet are quite happy to do just that to vehicles on a road btw The highway code does recommend using cycle paths where provided, it also remind those road users with a slower...

Devalues the honours system even further while rewarding failure

As Climate Change has always happened and is driven by the Sun I realise that there is very very little humanity can do and we should instead be putting our efforts into controlling pollution I note the same organisations and people pushing Manmade Climate Change are the same who pushed the...

I've been trying to book tickets for this date and am unable to do so, I have tickets for a return journey on the following Sat but am wondering why I am unable to book for the Monday. Both the preceding and following weeks are open to buy. I know there are works at Temple Meads and the...

So your employer says you must be jabbed, what happens if you have a reaction ?

Last night was the first of the new series of The Hotel Inspector and perfectly illustrated this point, the tourism, leisure and hospitality sectors have been thrown to the wind under lockdowns

Although the CON-servatives are quietly involving themselves in identity politics The Labour problems also involve the ignoring the result of the EU referendum; Corbyn was a Leaver but sadly he was persuaded to drop his principles on that and the person who benefited was the man who pressurised...

I have read enough research papers which are available on the internet which suggest that Lockdowns if anything worsen the effects of the virus and that's without the collateral damage we are now seeing in other physical illnesses and mental health Sweden never locked down in the way that the UK...

It's week 63 of 3 weeks to flatten the curve Should never imposed lockdowns in the first place sadly I think Johnson will listen to the sirens of doom and delay again which could be interesting shall we say

Both my wife and I had a "Flu like illness" (diagnosed by surgery nurse for my wife's doctors note for work ) in November 2019 Normally I suffer more with respitory illnesses than she does but not this time. Their is evidence that those whose blood group is O suffer less, I'm O she is A She was...
