Well done on the 70th

Some say I'm quite elusive....... (47403?

There's someone on here from the toon who only needs 143 anyway

I liked some of the humour in there! A very productive day in the Mancc area! And I've also had problems getting guards on trains to tell me how easy it is to change platforms at a station just to go back (the one that springs to mind is actually Piccadilly-Levenshulme and back!)

Wow, that's some day!
Glad you made the 100, looks like too much hard work for me, though

Thanks Phil, yes it was hard work, I'm not a youngster any more and I felt it the next day being on my feet for so long. I struggle with motivation at times and figured giving myself a target would help and it certainly kept me out much later than usual. Bit of a silly exercise looking back and not worthy of a trip report as such. Not up to the standards of the rest of you!

On the contrary, I found it fascinating.

Quite agreed with the good sir from West Yorkshire, I found it fascinating too. As I was scrolling down the list of moves I have to admit I was keen to see if you hit 100. When I saw 98 I felt gutted for you, so close and so far away! Then I read the last bit of course, well done for managing 101 scores in one day!

I'd have struggled before the end myself, so well done for managing it!

As for the trip report, you're finding your style yet so all is gravy. It still read brilliantly though so all is good!
