8:59 to Bristol

No, it's not the title of an Agatha Christie mystery; that was '4:50 from Paddington' featuring Miss Jane Marple. The 8:59 to Bristol features my wife Rosalind, who is going to see her family and celebrate her niece's 40th birthday. She is on her way now travelling on First Great Western trains.

And I love train journeys. This one take 3 hours 45 minutes. Me? At home looking after 'the boys' - Oliver and Bertie. Keeping a mindful eye on Oliver who has not been well and is on a course of probiotics. So, it's a boys weekend for me and a fun weekend for Ros.

Do wish I was on the train though....
