Nice work. The destruction of the uk ceramics industry is very sad yet its not high profile economically or in the media. This politicians seem little bothered by it.

I thought TPE food and service was good and worth it. Not sure what cross country is like now. A few years ago I had an xc curry meal and it was one of the worst such on board meals I’d ever tasted. The steward was embarrassed about how bad it was!

Anything to avoid putting passengers first I guess….

I’d avoid the court if you possibly can. But I do understand that money can be hard to come by. But do check out the sort of options @Sun Chariot mentions asap. That will be time well spent Obviously these are large sums but trust me as your career and earnings potential increases they will...

Very much so. You are correct. Having also been on tours of such pottery factories in both Denby and Stoke over the years. Observation well made.

I hope so!

I think you’ve done well to get them to offer you any sort of instalment plan. Is it simply impossible for you to manage that offer? 1787938313 Thanks. But I guess the wheels of the county court process would be slow and instalments would be possible for that. This would be really worth trying...

Wall box attached to the Denby Pottery factory in Derbyshire yesterday. Very sadly the whole site closes on Sunday. The closing down sale posters refer to the large on site factory shop. First quality items of some of the finest British pottery on sale by the receivers for between £2 to £5 per...

But does the court require past evaded fares to be paid as part of the sentence? Or just the court fine which will be much lower especially if income taken into consideration

If you request in court hearing yes. But not vast amount. Several weeks or maybe a month or so I suspect

Some staff do seem to bandy around the word fraud when it’s really not the best term to use in the situation described. ‘That ticket is not valid on this train’ would be a clearer phrase. Might even be easier to understand if the time is detailed on the ticket. As I suspect it was. I can be...

Great poster image

This is why you need to check your work contract!!! If that contract states that you must do so, then you must do so. Because by then not telling them you’ve breached that contract and open yourself to dismissal. And dismissal for something like this means it becomes harder to get another job...

Well that was always a risk with every single fare you evaded. They only needed to catch you red handed once to prosecute you in court and be gauranteed a guilty verdict by virtue of catching you without a ticket.

Bank of England calculator says £5 in 1974 is £49 today.

Deal with that with advice from here if you receive any paperwork from the court to say this has actually happening. Or engage a solicitor with specialist knowledge of rail fare evasion work to assist you.

1) Wait for them to reply and see what they say. 2) see what your employer hr handbook / intranet says about convictions should you need to do that if it went to court or even if they want to know before it went to court. But you probably don’t need to contact HR about it until you actually...

If you’ve not been stopped (ie caught red handed) do not reply to any other messages with getting advice from here. Replies are likely to incriminate yourself by giving or confirming the criminal acts you have almost certainly been doing. It’s not in your interest to do that. At least not...

Interesting to know. Not what I’d have expected

Good question! Luckily someone has answered
