Good luck with this, at least the weather is cooler!

I read with joy how a pint of Jaipur was the second of the day and commend you. That's the sort of madness in my method.

This made a miserable old git laugh a lot!

I'm fully booked up in June and July with the Spoons Grand Tour, I'm in the Scottish Borders that week. The route is more or less as I'd envisaged it, There are two other potential wild cards at...

Lichfield?, Burton?, Stourbridge?

That's correct and they are a better option if travelling from Brum or Wolverhampton rather than the stopping train. There are a couple of Virgin services which should stop at Wellington. I had a...
