RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted February 22, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 22, 2018 Yeah I agree a good philosophy read at bedtime does settle you down for the night, but don't you find Nietzsche short on the comedy unlike Parmenides who is a laugh from cover to cover. As for Alain Badiou books they have real cliff hanger endings. Isn't modern medication more effective? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Captain Kernow Posted February 22, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 22, 2018 Our washing machine plays 'The Trout Quintet' when it's finished doing the washing. One can tire of quality classical music. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eastwestdivide Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Our washing machine plays 'The Trout Quintet' when it's finished doing the washing. One can tire of quality classical music. In a disparate attempt to bring this thread closer to trains... wasn't the Trout Quintet by the same bloke who designed the "Lieder" locomotive? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted February 22, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 22, 2018 Isn't modern medication more effective? Railway videos are the best. I did have a cab ride video from Market Harborough to Sheffield. On a good day I would nod off somewhere before or just after Loughborough and wake up around Chesterfield never did see Derby. Sometimes I never even reached Leicester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium Clive Mortimore Posted February 22, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 22, 2018 (edited) The above cab ride video was a really well made one, it was professionally done so the drivers of the APT-E could learn the Midland route. Part one was from St Pancras to Market Harborough. A mate lent me his Settle to Carlisle cab ride. Not a professional one, I think the camera was hand held. The secondman's windscreen wiper kept coming into view and it wasn't raining. Not once did I make it to Horton without feeling travel sick, and I was sat in my comfy armchair. Every time I tried to give back to my mate he said "Its alright you can borrow it a bit longer". Edited February 22, 2018 by Clive Mortimore Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ceasar The Moment No ghosts have been written, unless they haven't told me. All the published stuff is under my own name - which is one (of several) reasons why I don't use it on here as some p*llock is then bound to argue with what I wrote years ago about his favourite class of loco (although I was fairly complimentary about spamcans and the advantages they offered over an LMS 4F). 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
