Comedy error

So National Rail Enquiries told me yesterday, when I searched for L'Spa to Charlton TOMORROW to get there at 11, that the train was at 8.33. Me was surprised because oo, early Sunday train that is.

So dutifully got up this morning (albeit a tad late), got to station, bought my ticket from fancy new fast ticket machine, went to platform…my, awfully quiet…my, no trains…my, screens on screensavers. Look at timetable, oh look, first train at 9.47am, back down to foyer area, oh look, engineering work meaning all trains to Paddington instead of Marylebone, oh look, gets there at 1pm.

GRR.

Hear hear Mr Drake: bloody trains
