Winter is approaching fast. It was -2c this morning! That's 35f. As kids, we used to love the winter. Snowball fights, ice slides... great fun! Although, a few of us ended up having stitches at the hospital. Happy days!

Let's rant about bad car drivers. Why do we use mugs rather than cups and saucers? Where have proper tea sets gone? Fish and chip prices have gone through the roof! Pubs can stay open later... That's all very well but landlords can't afford to pay the staff to stay until midnight! Council houses, new-build house prices, quiz night... and so much more!

The railway quickly developed and spread throughout the country. Goods were carried from A to B, which was great, but... people also started to uproot and travel around the country. Was that a good thing? We're off to Hampshire, the weather id boring, but I hope you'll join me for this week's Midweek Message.
