    Enjoy the Ibis Mark, it's right opposite a 24 hour Tescos! You can stock up on food before the trip!

    I'll probably be out somewhere for it first thing in the morning, hopefully it is 07.25 path, same as last year.

    Hmm, I finish work at 6am on Saturday morning, departure from King's Cross is at 07.16. Start work on Monday evening at 9pm, arrival at King's Cross is at 20.00. I think my commute home on Saturday and back again on Monday is sorted! Much better than the usual class 365!

    Couple of minutes down away from Stevenage after a tedious run along the slow line from Ally Pally.

    Saw it first storming through Welwyn North and then managed to chase it to near Biggleswade. Sound and video boys must be loving the helicopter following it.
