Codeine metabalises to morphine in your body. A neurological condition necessitates my taking 8 x 30/500 co-codamol daily. Family used to take occassionally for pain relief until both son and daughter changed jobs. My daughter works in nuclear related defence industry And was told they could...
Oh come on! Does no one want Foxfield to Coniston, Haverthwaite to Plumpton or Otley to Arthington, Clapham to WCML, Arnside to Hincaster Jn, Harrogate to Lofthouse in Nidderdale, Wennington to Green Eyre. I keep banging on about these but they have merit, two touristy and one commutor the rest...
err... well yes and no!
Agree with much of what you've said but there's the matter of vacancies being posted late (very late) Fridays and shut Monday mornings. Or there again there's vacancies advertised " must be able to start....(two weeks time). These happen fairly often with driver (even...
Surely our unpredictable weather has a lot to do with this? Also, the mindset of most heritage operators is firmly locked (moderately successfully to date) in 'nostalgia', Heartbeat, Second World War weekends etc. The cost of manufacturing/converting coaching stock must deter many of them too...
Declaring interest here, the owners and staff at L&HR being good friends and I have worked on most of the Loco stock over 4 decades. The "demics" are generally given short shrift because storage is limited (and mostly of a linear nature beyond both tunnels) and also because it is a scenic...

There's one on the disused bit of the Lakeside branch, just short of Ladysyke viaduct. It is brick built and in fair condition except that the concrete slab foundation has tilted in the bog at about 10 degrees. Also one near to the site that the Furness loco went down the mineshaft in Lindale...
Fascinating Guardian article. Reminds me of Ian Brady's comment that the landscape had "owned" him and "driven" him. Certainly not a place you can dismiss casually.
Especially when someone then builds a by-pass over the single with a single span bridge, thus making doubling an almost certain no-no. The Barrow-Park South block being a prime example!:mad:
Different I know but I have had to give up using Internet Explorer to access this site unless I use private browsing. Script errors flash up faster than I can close the window! This is the latest incarnation of Windows 10 and associated IE. Firefox isn't perfect unless in private. (WNXX forum...
We Serve motto has been that of the Internetional Lions since 1917 as you've no doubt found. Unfortunately this is so widespread it swamps google results:roll: Maybe it is a Scottish chapter of the Lions.
As always with this topic of debate the anti-monarchists ignore the equal cost of protecting a president and his/her extended family. I live a few hundred yards from the child (elderly) of a former (now deceased) prime minister. I can assure you that protection was continued 30 years past this...

Can't be more than a few miles from where they film at Harewood.
