Waiting at Wooferton for a B1 on an excursion heading to Shrewsbury on the old LNWR/GWR joint - Wooferton is no longer a junction or even a station, but there's still a signal box, refuge siding and (G)WR signalling.

Whatever else this damned pox has brought to us, it has been a sobering reminder of what sensible traffic levels on the roads are like, as well as the manifest benefits of lower air pollution.

Several years ago, I was running a BMW, a VW Polo, and a 1934 Austin. I always drove pretty much the same, but interestingly.....in the Polo - I was universally ignored - my preferred reaction. In the BMW, I was often gesticulated at for no apparent reason, and in my pre-war Austin, everyone wanted to be my friend. On the Motorway - lorries would often hoot. Strangers at traffic lights would wind-down their windows and start a conversation - and everyone would let me out at junctions - where in the BM' I'd be cut dead. What strange animals we are....! I also never got stopped by the Feds in the old Austin, for which no Tax or MOT was required, and the insurance was pennies. I wish I still had it...!
