There's a photo in the Middleton Press book "Woking to Southampton" with it being a grass bank decorated with some rather smart shrubs. Can't recall the year though. 1607187588 The old footbridge had a padlocked gate going to nowhere, where the steps to an island platform would have been.

A friend of mine who works in the police service has said that the action of some senior officers and PCCs has put back community engagement by decades. The rank and file are not happy. It's a minority of officers who are the dictionary definition of why there should be a police intelligence...

Would the D Stock and the 1938 stock ever have met side by side in LU service? 38 stock was used on the Piccadilly Line, but I think it had all gone to the Northern Line by the time the D stock was introduced, so no meetings at Turnham Green.

I'm currently in Plymouth for work. The hotel I'm staying in is dead. I've been coming to the same hotel for a couple of years, including during the spring lockdown. I've never seen it like this. And I think this is a border phenomenon. Everyone has gone into Tier 1 Cornwall to stay. Normally...

This From Sky News. https://news.sky.com/story/covid-19-immunity-certificates-to-exempt-people-from-restrictions-likely-to-be-possible-12151178 Except this isn't the case, as later in the article There's nothing like taking stuff out of context is there? All that's happening is scientists...

Are all the 317/7s now back in service with GA (bar the experimental one) or is it just the two?

I'm waiting for the film "Covid- The Year The Earth Went Mad". I think I might register the copyright

There's the performing artists exemption as well. That's it. You people have held me back for long enough. I'm going to clown college* *you'll get it if you're a Simpsons fan.

It's "sobering milestone" on Sky. I wonder if my Facebook post about "grim milestone" and whip rounds for thesauruses was listened to by the Sky deputy political editor (I was at school with him and he's a Facebook friend)

So far since lockdown I've had a Sky engineer visit, the boiler serviced and a carpet fitted. Just kept my distance and let them get on with it.

I'm guessing that the one going to Havenstreet will be stuffed and mounted only.

This vaccine rollout will be to hospitals and big vaccination centres only, because of the - 80 storage thing. Not a big problem, but it means that people will have to travel. I guess for care homes it'll be a case of minibusing to and fro. Despite this however, the approval of this vaccine is...

I'd suggest that the NRM example has one carriage painted in original provincial blue and one in western region brown. Job done.

That is precisely my point. They are both the same. But the media use "slow" when describing a decrease and "exponential" when describing an increase, because it sounds far more sensational. I can't imagine Sky News saying "the R value is now 1.1 meaning that the virus is spreading slowly"

According to the REACT trial, the R value is 0.88. This is being reported in the media as being a slow reduction in the virus. Yet when it was as 1.1, the virus was spreading exponentially. Hmmmm I don't remember them reporting the virus spreading slowly, and reducing exponentially.

It says NVQ3 in a relevant subject. So an A level in cookery and geography won't cut it.

Having read thoroughly the job ad, these are NVQ3 healthcare assistants they are recruiting, not people off the street.

Giving an intramuscular injection is one of the easiest things to do, medically. It's nigh on impossible to screw it up. Dose checking etc will be done by a qualified person anyway, there will always be two people present. Anything injected must be cross checked by at least one other person...

I've found this whole thread fascinating, as despite commuting in to Paddington for the best part of 10 years, I never knew that Westbourne Park had BR platforms.

In addition there are no plans anywhere to vaccinate the under 55s, certainly not in the first round anyway.
