    I'm coming up from M5 Junction 7 so those roadworks are going to be a real pain for me tomorrow. I'm going to set the alarm for 5:00 and try and set off in good time.

    Just heard on radio services suspended between Carlisle and Carstairs. Hope that is resolved before the A1 is in Cumbria. Carlisle Station could be pretty packed if not.

    Statesman tour passengers got on the wrong train at Stafford and now being thrown off at Crewe. Luckily for them the other tour is right behind us.

    Some good running between checks. BRI to WVH 24m 29s. Looped at Bushbury, 72 max before Stafford.

    60 after Stafford fell to 55 at Searchlight Lane Jn on the new down slow line, gradually recovered to 65 at Whitmore summit. 76 max down Madeley.

    Crewe to Preston 65m 21s. Caught up freight at Hartford then held south of Wigan for up Liverpool train to cross in front of us. From 36 thro Wigan NW sustained 41 on the 1:104 (?) to Boars Head, 60 at Coppull then more checks before a 72 max.

    Train in P6 PRS while loco watering on P7.

    As Al expressed a lack of interest, I was planning on intercepting said Black Pudding as it made its way through in the handkerchief of hope. But like a Wetherspoon's breakfast, high on promise, low on delivery, and consequently, I have the empty stomach of experience... ;)

    Off topic, sorry. Talking of black pudding, I had an excellent full English breakfast, served at my seat, on one of Mr Bransons trains ((VTEC) last Tuesday, including splendid black pudding. Even Mrs V (appetite like a bird) demolished the lot including the toast and marmalade.The breakfast beat the hell out of a Wetherspoons offering.
