      Don't worry - 75% of the 'trunk rail network' willl be electrified, sorry decarbonised, by - maybe - 2045 (that's the year, not the time of day).  It would appear that Wales and the West Country don't count in this calculation.

    Disappointed to spot a copy of Robert Plant's 1988 album "Now and Zen" in a recent episode of Endeavour, supposedly set in 1969. Do ITV take us for fools?

      Well, I don't know, Al, Morse managed to solve a Victorian mystery from his hospital bed in one of the original series with John Thaw!

       

      If he had help with that, I suspect Tom Baker, just the sort of time travel rule flouting he'd get away with!

      I'm being unfair to Endeavour. as the record in question was glimpsed only briefly, and partially obscured, on the floor of a flat that had been trashed! At least it was vinyl, not a CD!

      A similar plot to "The Daughter of Time" (published 1951) in which Josephine Teys detective Alan Grant investigates the "alleged crimes" of Richard III from his hospital bed.

      Wunjo Guitars very good - that's where I got that Gretsch from that I think I showed you? About five minutes after buying it I was trying to go through the barriers in the tube and they closed on the case - I could almost hear the crunching of nicely varnished wood! Thankfully when I finally got the guitar out to check, it was all right - but it was a nervous few minutes!

    A round of applause in memory of Keith Flint at our local Parkrun  - very touching.

      First in my age group for the first time today, too - although my wife and relatives wondered if it was because everyone else stayed home. Very supportive! They're probably right, though, as it was nowhere near a fast run.
