    Hooray !

    Found myself in London this morning by mistake and just realised that train was running while drinking Young's Special in Spoons Hammersmith. Shame, I could have seen it if I'd remembered earlier : (

    Holme departure delayed. Unspecified problem with loco. Support crew have gone underneath.

    Yes, bit like a railtour but on service trains. Two good Spoons in Hammersmith, The Plough and Harrow at one end of King Street, and The William Morris at the other. Excellent selection of ales in both and £2.10 for a pint has to be the cheapest in town I'd have thought, : ) I am drinking halves mind.
