    Well the results are at the Doctors but I've got back-to-back meetings all day tomorrow. I've an appointment for Saturday morning but I might see if I can shuffle some stuff around and get down there tomorrow or Friday afternoon.

    Good luck shuffling Gen.

    The best part of the A303 is in Somerset. Once you are past Mere and whizzing up Tinkers Hill towards Wincanton you are usually past the queues.....then after the Ilminster by-pass you are virtually in Devon before the next bottleneck.

    I have a soft spot for Yeovil, they will get relegated no doubt this season, but just being in the Championship is an amazing feat. The war memorial in Yeovil is the only one where I have ever seen my surname, (even though my fathers side of the tree is all Welsh valleys for several generations), but my mothers side is all south Somerset.

    Best bread in England at queen camel bakery even if you have to risk your life crossing a303 heading east.....

    Waiting is the worst IMO. Results are ok, you get a plan in place for bad news and you feel like a bit of a relieved twit for good news it waiting ages one.

    Important to shuffle, Generali, if not for your own sanity, then ours :o

    BBC Breakfast are extremely straight faced about the weather that's coming today. It looked like they'd sped up the time lapse but it's wind.

    Well, trains are running from here. Whether they get where they are running to remains to be seen, but out here is coping fine.


    I still find it odd that laces I usually expect to flood aren't. The far end of my road is 'usually' flooded in heavy rain.....passable in all but the worst rain for most cars, passable for four by fours in all weather. But this morning? Clear.

    Road near here closed on and off through winter and closed is as normal as open? Is open. Its across a flood plain, I would expect it to be closed.

    Route to station often mildly flooded, at least some small water over road.....but absolutely fine today.


    Embankment strengthening seems finished. :).

    Anyone travelling from the West into London would be better served getting off at Reading and walking.............

    Taxi is going to be the issue in London any way isn't it? Is there a strike?
