Tonight I have learned my mums cat likes Mastermind, but not Only Connect. We shall see his opinion on University Challenge shortly.

I eventually finished the series, and actually really enjoyed it... although some of the earlier episodes felt like they had a much better storyline than the latest ones.

A major step forward for our independent line over the last 2 days. An 18 wagon train brought in 900 tons of ballast that was laid along our 800m independent line, which connects our platform at Princes Risborough with Thame Jcn. The next step is to tamp the track and connect up signalling equipment
Three railway lines that curve to the left. On the left the new Chinnor Independent line which has two rail mounted excavators on it - one near and one in the distance. In the middle, the existing Princes Risborough Reception Line that connects Platform 4 with the Network Rail Thame Branch. The ballast train is on this line. On the right, the Network Rail Thame Branch which connects to Platform 3 of Princes Risborough station. Two railway lines bottom right curving away to the top left. The line is surrounded by leafless winter trees. On the left, the Independent line with excavators taking ballast from the wagon train. On the right, Network Rail's Thame branch. The ballast wagons are on this line. The Excavators and wagons are bright yellow.

"Can you pick up bread?"
"Yes. I might be a while as I've bumped into Oor Wullie."

A 1960s British Rail class 37 diesel loco. Freshly repainted in Large Logo livery as worn in the 1980s. Oor Wullie is a comic strip in the Scottish Sunday Post newspaper. Locos based at Eastfield depot in Glasgow, wore a West Highland terrier as they were used on trains to Fort William, Oban and Mallaig.
