    Just found out I'm getting a lump of cashback off my rent. The question now is do I a) be sensible and spend it on life etc. or b) more trains...

      Well, it's meant to be changing from diesel to steam in Newport station, but according to Real Time Trains, it's only been allowed 2 minutes for the change - suggesting that either it's not happening or the site's wrong

      Oh. Then their website is wrong then. Guess I won't be going spotting this Saturday then

  12. Frappington Jct

    The website I need to go on to get my homework off has just decided that it's going to break and that to click on anything you need to click about 5cm above it. The login bar is at the very top of the page, so you can't. :(

      This is C2 that I'm resitting, followed by C3. I got an A* in C1, but a C in C2, so I wasn't happy
