Just tried it from Bamberg, Germany and it let me log into my account.

I do it regularly in less than 10 minutes, but I do the journey every day, the usual time is about 7-8 minutes unless platform 4C is involved in which case 10 will be needed. I've done it in 5 minutes at a fast waddle when trying to get the 19:31 to Spring Road and not fancying the wait for the...

I was on a 2+4 HST today 09:47 Newton Abbot to Liskeard. Very high density with tall seats and only 2 tables in the coach I was in, plugs between the seats for the airline rows. WiFi wasn't working. Goes nicely though.

If you are getting the 07:01 ex-New Street and connecting onto the 07:15 ex-New Street, I'd think you'll be fine. I get the 07:01 three mornings a week and it is usually at worst 2 minutes late into Crewe and it will normally be a cross-platform connection. I think I've seen the VT go past only...

I go through most evenings between 6pm and 7pm, I usually find them staffed at 6pm, I rarely find them staffed at 7pm.

I'm waiting to book a Paddington to Torquay for the 9th of July with a similar foreboding.

From what I understand, we are probably talking 4-5 times a week.

A friend is having to visit St Thomas's Hospital frequently and has asked me advice about monthly seasons as a way of doing it. Is the Didcot Parkway to London Terminals ticket viable for this and if so is the route via Paddington and then the Tube?

They said they were accepting tickets - the actuality was as usual somewhat different. As usual, some drivers either weren't told or were ignoring it.

Spring Road is probably undercounted, it could really do with a car park, kindly leave my 20 minute service alone, if you want more grab one of the Dorridges they get too much priority anyway. :D The comments about Small Heath and Tyseley and the 37 are all very well except the 37 is very slow...

No trains to Stratford upon Avon either via Dorridge or Shirley. Snow Hill lines are operating but with lots of turnbacks and cancellations.

I didn't direct you to a web page. However, I am quite surprised by your statement as it would be against the law to do that. There is an exception to allow some councillors to only have their details available on paper, but it is usually only given to those who have received threats. And I...

I've known the odd one who was probably unemployable.

If you consult the Register of Members Interests, you can find out about the employers of councillors, if they have shareholdings (above a certain value) that may cause conflicts of interest and if they own property or a hold a licence on a dwelling house in the authority. If anything they are...

a) In some circumstances such as city centre areas etc b) However, as a general thing nationwide, no.

What about it? I would suggest that's my business, suffice it to say that I was taxed at the appropriate bands on my council allowances. I was allowed by my then employers, as is required by law, to take unpaid leave, annual leave or flextime to cover council duties, which I did to the tune of...

I got 16k when on Birmingham City Council, plus some SRA's (one of which was CENTRO) which brought it to about 27k. The vast majority of councillors in the UK get under 8k for their work. All Scottish councillors get ~17k, Welsh ones ~13k.

Some Virgin West Coast train managers to be "funny" have been known to refer to Sadwell and Dudley, with Dudley in a "Lenny Henry" style. It's generally not appreciated by the local passengers. Still waiting for one to refer to Wolverhampton High Level.

Whilst I can't remember the last time my ticket was checked on the Snow Hill lines, but I get checked every day Birmingham to Crewe and quite frequently Crewe - Smethwick Galton Bridge. Mind you when I used to get the 07:15 Birmingham-Crewe, I didn't see a Virgin Guard for months and that was...
