The only services that have called at Thanet Parkway all day are 395s via Canterbury West running to and from Margate. Nothing heading to Sandwich has called.
Every Electrostar has passed though non stop.
True, although I have never had an issue before. I will probably avoid Eurostar until a solution to the lengthly queues is found. Not reasonable or practical to demand people arrive so early, nor morale to state the gates close
The gate allowed the ticket and the staff did not quibble. Never been a requirement has it? Unless they enforce that more strongly now due to the queues since Brexit

No, we are not saying that at all. I am saying that some places with London postcodes (because the post town is a London borough as is the case with Enfield) include places that are not in London. That was my point you see.
I read post 68 thanks. Anyway, have a good evening
Well that wasn’t made clear, context is easily lost in text form
I didn’t see what the joke was, or that you were speaking about an inside joke with friends
The only true London postcodes are those of compass points. But save that for another discussion and leave you to continue your joke…
