    Took my first train ride since early 2020 today - short hop CLC to Styal, train was rammed between Oxford Rd and Piccadilly for Parklife.

     

    Required 5 gin and tonics, a zinfandel and a bottle of Camden Lager, a gammon steak and later a lamb curry to calm myself

      Calm yourself?

      Sounds more like an adminstration of a General Anaesthetic!

      It was administered over 7 hours. :D

       

      All was good until we had to do Oxford Rd to Piccadilly on a seperate service - people were using the express services and TPE to get to Piccadilly to get the tram to Heaton Park.  The train was completely rammed with drunk youth in various states of dress, we had one corner near a door and my wife was considering just getting off the train.  I had to reassure her it was just for 2 minutes then they would all get off, which they did, but left the train in a right state, cans everywhere till the airport where a cleaner got on during the reversal.
