I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

You must mean the former Sainsbury's Brian! Somewhat rank in the hot weather.

A helicopter registration G-HDEF, equipped with a camera, has been stooging about over the town during the last hour. Wonder if that is related to the Great Railway Journeys episode. Brilliant series and Michael Portillo is a most engaging host with his trusty Bradshaw's guide.

Spotted him jaywalking across the main street at the Ladywell junction, followed by a camera crew that I just managed to avoid. I think he was late for lunch!

blue barry might have been hiding down his bunker at the time.

Funny our MP Charlie turned up at the Station today while waiting for someone when Michael P walked through,charlie said he has nothing in common with us he doesn't chat!!!! Last time I saw Charlie I really upset him and he went off down the road shouting at me!
If you knew what I know,we would both be in trouble!

Some interesting photos on the Facebook page of the WHPS.
Michael Portillo did some filming at the Grand Shaft and the Drop Redoubt with Mandy Whall playing a starring role.
Should be well worth watching when it is broadcast in due course.
