Stratford and Ebsfleet seems like. Great launch concept to me: doesn’t tread too much on E* toes and creates an alternative market. Stratford by rail or Ebbsfleet by car are both better alternatives than the appalling St Pancras for us

Our Pickle really tests us on Vet days by finding new and ever smaller places to hide, which she decamps to the moment the cat flap is closed. We have resorted to closing down rooms to her at the same time to corral her into the kitchen. Horrible humans eh?
