Met Mrs tkk off train, she's feeling below par, did a COVID test when we got in, fortunately it's negative. Tomorrow she starts two days of fasting for a procedure at the hospital on Friday🤞

I've never been on a sleeper, the longest train trip for me was Southampton to Birmingham and only did that once

As a teenager I got on the last train from Liverpool to the Wirral. OK I had enjoyed a few drinks.
Woke up at 0400 in the sidings.
Does that count ?

Still hissing down. Roads are all flooded round here and it's going to get worse as the day wears on.

No idea what we are having to eat today.

The Caledonian Sleeper arrived into Kings Cross really early so she walked to Waterloo station. On the way she passed a load of cyclists as they were setting up for the start of the London to Monaco cycle ride. It's over 8 days. She also saw over 100 brommies in her walk across London ( we play " Spot the Brommie " when in London )
While she was in Edinburgh there was an event in Musselburgh where they'd closed off a road and had loads of different Cargo Bikes for people to try. there was also a Smoothie Stall where you chose your ingredients and then hopped on a static bike that was connected to a generator which powered the Smoothie Maker 😎

Just had to nip home to grab my circular saw. Think I saw @PeteXXX cycling home through Hanslope at about 1245hrs.

Walking in the rain is hateful!

Marginally better than singing in it though.

I’d quite like to go with Octopus if I can ever get my dispute with SSE/OVO sorted out. They seem to get good reviews.

I am with Octopus and never had any problems.

I was with Bulb until they went bust. We all got moved to Octopus and I must say that their website is very easy to use.
