I think a hot toddie recipe would be perfect for seeing in the new year, yes please (especially as I just went to look on your profile to find it in your posts and my morning brain couldn’t cope when I saw you’ve a wagonload of posts).

Oh, but what lies behind the smiling beckoning mask of the New Year?

 

[StrentWriter]

Oh, but what lies behind the smiling beckoning mask of the New Year?

I hope, peace and goodwill to everyone.

I know it’s probably going to be another awful year, but I have to have hope for a better future for us, our kids, and grandchildren.

Otherwise I wouldn’t get up in the morning.

Just have to have hope, fight the awful parts of the system where I can, and use my writing to escape the rest.

All I can do.

I suspect you are correct, changing a number won’t change human nature which will remain on a continuum of being from the divine to the devilish,

Kent, you look different this morning....i can't put my finger on it....but there's something...

 

[paulworcsuk]

Morning all, nippy out!

 

[jonnoback]

That's why I use the train, because....
Well.
Nevermind.

Think both our countries are experts in reasons for train delays.

 

[Meekly_Anna]

Think both our countries are experts in reasons for train delays.

Currently yes.
In Germany it's not at bad as it is in Britain. Two weeks ago, our Federal Network Agency imposed a hefty fine on our railway company because they announced their delays, i.e. the planned construction sites, too late. That's Germany. You're not fined for delays, you're fined for announcing it too late.
I once wanted to travel to Wales by train. Just for the fun of it. Eight hours to reach London, but nearly two days all in all.
My boss overruled my decision and made me take a flight. He had no sense for adventure.

Maybe he was just worried you’d become a latter day Ancient Mariner, condemned to wander the rails for ever.
