Also, the following VSOE excursion should be at TM about now (though reported 16 mins late at Worting) :


67013 1V80 09.44 Victoria - Bristol TM (13.03)



I can't get down there today (have to pay for the kid's uni education !) so I'd echo Pete's request for sight of any photos.

How i would love to see some pics, it will run past my UK front door, less than a 100 yards away. But i am working in India, so some pics would be so nice, something to remind me of home!
