Never underestimate the stupidity of the general public:

• Missing your stop does not constitute an emergency, Get off at the next station and take a train back.
• In case of disruption, we are not capable of rustling up a substitute bus within ten minutes. Wait on the platform until we can do so, or until the next train comes/the line reopens.
• The driver, conductor, and dispatcher are pretty confident as to where the train is going. Listening to them is better than believing whatever nonsense Trainline is shitting out. Certainly, do not convince a train-load’s worth of passengers to alight, and then re-board within 60 seconds.

I had an IBS flare-up towards the start of the week. The supermarket have decided that diarrhoea medicine requires you to be 18 or older to be able to purchase it. Underage? Nah, go shit yerself kidda! As an aside, the same supermarket only needs you to be 16 to buy paracetamol, a product that is more likely to kill you should you decide to overdose on it.

The insurance on the Grannywagon has been renewed for another year. The good news was that the quote given was £100 less than last year. The less good news is that that is still £80 more than it was in 2022. We may return to normality, as it was, one day.
