Oh bloody hell.

 

I suppose I should have read further down the list of engineering works, because it looks like there's similar amounts of work going on for the weekends of the 27th and the 3rd as well. :(

 

Things are slightly better on the 27th than they were on the 20th, because there are trains running on the Sunday between Edinburgh and Glasgow, but the Saturday is still Glasgow -> Carlisle -> York. Full, normality is not returned until the 10th of November.

 

I'm happy to stick with the 27th, although it means the Glasgow and Edinburgh teams won't be able to meet up on the train on the way down. This is possibly a good thing, depending on whether York's attitude to gangs of drunken maurauding Scotsmen has changed at all in the last 400 years.

 

Just looking at the prices for tickets - that Glasgow -> Carlisle -> York route I just mentioned is only available at £68, vs a slightly later 9:45 Glasgow -> Edinbugger -> Newcastle -> York route that gets in at quarter to three, and is £23 (GNER Std Advance).

 

Getting back seems to be about 70 quid from Steeton, or possibly getting the ticket from Steeton to Leeds on the day and wangling it from there.

 

Meh - I want to ask nicely if we could change it to the 10th of November when there's more trains and better deals, but would that be just asking for trouble?

The 10th would be grand, especially as it's a merre 4 days after pay day.

 

Not that I'm offering to buy anyone a drink...


The noises commonly associated with flatulence are caused by the vibration of the anal sphincter, and not by the buttocks. The sound varies depending on the tightness of the sphincter muscle and velocity of the gas being propelled, as well as other factors such as water and body fat. The auditory pitch (sound) of the flatulence outburst can also be affected by the anal embouchure.

Random thought - is there no engineering work on the weekend of the 10th of November, or has it just not been announced yet? :|

So remind me again - you're now working for the Department of Not Helping, right?

 

I had a look here:
http://www.nationalrail.co.uk/service_bulletins/currentAndFuture.html

 

And there's nothing which would affect things too badly.

 

I blame the unions anyway. If Thatcher had her way, all the engineering work would be carried out in the middle of the night by cheap foreign labour, with the electricity switched on. And then we'd send the cheap foreign labour back to where they came from, having taken all their money.

I will just say that last night I arranged all my work for October and have kept the weekend of the 27th free.

And I booked the 27th off work with much kicking and screaming (I don't really get days off).

 

I could attempt to change it to.. whenever the Scots are on about now.

 

What about Linn?

There was no kicking or screaming involved in my day off. All it means is that I don't get to do sound for Abbatoir, the Abba heavy metal tribute band.

If the Scotches get teh 9:53 from Embra to York on the 27th, then we can arrive at 13:45 at an approximate cost of £22.50

 


York to the dog basket seems to be about £13 and no problems reported on that route.

 

Return on Sunday can be done from Leeds to Glasgow for about £22, and to Edinbugh for £21.60, both leaving Leeds at 12:08.
