I'm deffo out and about tomorrow.

Email me yer mobile number (I assume you have one!) and I'll text you when I have a better idea what time I can be at Nailsea. I'd assume about 1pm (ish) but I'm not sure how much north Bristol stuff I have to do yet.

I don't :oops: ...probably the only person my age not to :roll:

I was planning to go into Bristol as well as I've got some shopping to do...if I do that in the morning I could get back to Temple Meads and take the 12.55 Wessex Service, arriving at Nailsea at 1:05. Alternatively if I was coming from Taunton there's a train that gets there at 12.59.

Or you could pick me up at Temple Meads..depending where your deliveries are :lol:

Could you email me your mobile number? I can always use a payphone :lol:

I assume you have my email address as it's your board and I think I had to give one to register :?

Gawd this is more complicated than I thought :shock:

Right, I'm off out!

If my mobile has my own number stored somewhere on it then I can't find it! :oops:

I still think I'll be in the Nailsea area around 1pm.

With a bit of luck Andrew will read this and he can send you my mobile number. Every message displays an Email icon at the foot of it and he can contact you that way.

If not today, then I'm Nailsea way at least once a week so we can do it another time.

ok I'll just hang about at Nailsea until the next train (13:24 or 13:57). If I don't see a white van man by then I'll carry on to Bristol :lol:

Apparently I post like a 50 year old man :shock:

THAT little comment was why I didn't tip you :wink:

But yes, it was fun hiding from evil Network Rail :lol:

A pair of 153s took me from Nailsea into Bristol...or is that one 155 :P

Am I in the pics you took of the 143? I hope not :oops:
