a grand day out - yes folks, it's collection time

[gm]

we apologise for the slight delay in this service, it's has been caused by cack handed incompetence on the part of the author.

 

anyway, pretend it is 08:00am again 

 

 

a boring but acceptable breakfast was consumed, note brown bread toast for maximum jim bell potential 

[gm]

preparations have been made

 

 

a 'bag sand' for someone to 'old aat yer aand'

 

and a one way train ticket for extra excitement*

[gm]

which way are we heading ?

 

this way, a long way

 

[gm]

so a quick walk to the local station for local people was walked 

[gm]

what the fuck is this shit ? 

a pacer, how very autoshite

 

[gm]

mind the gap - must be cosy in winter 

 

[gm]

happy* commuters

[gm]

crossing the river Tyne

[gm]

let's have another look at that lovely pacer (the driver looked utterly fucked off with his steed)

[gm]

Newcastle achieved

 

 

not sure why stupid face

[gm]

the new* castle

[gm]

oh no, do we really want to go to that London 

[gm]

best get on one of these then

[loserone]

I had a decent view of the new castle yesterday.

 

I quite like those little pacers, even in Winter.  You're only on it for twelve minutes anyway.  Pity the poor souls who get on for longer!

[gm]

noisey little buggers though, they especially don't like driving over the points coming into the station

[gm]

much needed phone juice acquired

 

 

shame I don't own a hairdryer, just for teh lolz

I was on a pacer in South Wales last week. It screeched like fuckon the corner into Cardiff Central and was generally grim. 

[gm]
