Merry Christmas and a Happy New year


I see I have been keeping this blog going for 3 years and I think it is time now to call a halt.

Although I appear to get plenty of visits, according to the record which comes up each time, I do not get much real response. I have asked that anyone interested can contact me via my own yahoo web address but not much has come from there either.

The problem now is, as some of you in our area will have heard, the train service is as good as suspended due to strikes, cancellations and gross overcrowding on what few trains are running.

This is a dispute between the various factions as to whether the train driver or the guard open the doors at the stations. I won’t go into detail – it is almost unbelievably stupid and has been going on for months with no end in sight! So I am not getting my occasional days out with my bid-watching friend, who anyway has disappeared again – maybe back to Australia to join his family there.

I will keep our website going – see earlier blogs and may adjust that from time to time.

So, I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Au revoir, Jane (and Chris)
