So tomorrow we get a winter timetable on the Hayes (Kent) line. I can’t make my mind up on how I feel about this. It is good in that we are more likely to actually get a train to London, but bad in that the trains that do run are almost guaranteed to be full …

Hamilton
I love this musical as of tonight I’ve seen it twice. Not quite your standard happy ending musical, but it tells a story and it tells it well. It is my current favourite probably as it breaks some of the norms. Blood Brothers is also up there, again it breaks the happy ending norm. Many …
I love my radiator valve

It is not embossed – Debit Card

So I’ve started again
So being an IT geek I thought I should work out how to make a https: website and not just a http: one. In simple terms web browsers are going to start moaning more and more about http: only websites soon. Chrome always has a “Not secure” in front of the URL which doesn’t look …
