I would say it was very fairly priced rather than ridiculously cheap. No shite in Swindon station car park unless you count a grubby Alfa 156.

Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Reading already. This Is The Age Of The Train. (Being an original HST125, the age of this particular train is about 39.) Just spotted a black Farina Austin Cambridge estate - wow. Soz no pic, too far away and I was too slow.

Guest Breadvan72 Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 ... No shite in Swindon station car park unless you count a grubby Alfa 156. There was a roe deer in a field just behind the Dick Lovett BMW dealership, though. ... I once parked a grubby Alfa 156 in Swindon station car park, as part of a needlessly complex car swappage plan that featured an SD1 with a reasonably creditable Marine Life Centre located in its gloveboxes. That led on to all sorts of calamitous BL related shenanigans later on, but did at least mean that I got to hang out with Skiz and, more importantly, meet the uber glammo Frau Skizzer.

Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Thanks Parky! Re the Alfa 156, I was recalling fondly that very occasion as I passed by, Mr Breadvan. Unlocked new level: Tube.

Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Not a gopping Rover. Not gopping at all, in fact - but Anglo. Well, a lot of it is Anglo. Is it lunchtime yet? Tummy says yes. Camden sandwiches and charity popcorn - how metrosexual am I? @Parky - might well be... Junkman, garethj and outlaw118 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 If it's a C2C train and it goes through Chafford Hundred, I will put on my Jenny Agutter outfit and run up and down the platform for your delectation when you pull in mouseflakes, michael1703, Skizzer and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Yay! It's this train, the 11.43 out of Liverpool Street. Appears to stop everywhere, and is badged up National Express (c2c) which I thought meant buses but apparently not. I'll watch out for someone waving red knickers. (Always a good policy, in fact.)

Parky Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Sadly Mrs P has kicked off about a damaged plinth in the kitchen so I now find myself in B&Q dressed as Jenny Agutter.

Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Could be worse Parky, you could be dressed as Jenny Agutter in Walkabout. I'm in rural(-ish) Essex now, land of my forebears. I come from a long line of farm labourers from Tolleshunt D'Arcy, although I'm not going that far north today. I'm going to the seaside! Basildon now.

Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 Could be worse Parky, you could be dressed as Jenny Agutter in Walkabout.By which I meant Walkabout the movie instead of The Railway Children, not Walkabout the chain of sleazy Australian themed bars instead of B&Q...

Angrydicky Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Basildon is the southern equivalent of Salford or Scunthorpe. Grim as hell, don't ever go there. At least you're only passing through. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parky Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Basildon looks a bit grim? You should try going in it for maximum Jeremy Kyle lolz.

Skizzer Posted January 30, 2016 Author Share Posted January 30, 2016 I would click 'like' on the Jenny pic but I've just sent Mrs Skizzer a link to this thread so she can enjoy* it on her hols, so I'd better feign uninterest.
