Travelling by train, continued

Further to my tale of our train trip (below), an observation.

Remember when trains pulled in to a station? On Virgin trains it is now a "station stop" (after all, why not use two words when one will do?) and on Cross Country trains it is a "calling point"(!!)

That reminds me, on our black plastic rubbish sacks from Basildon Council, it very sensibly asks that we wrap up any sharp objects before putting them in the sack. Why? To ensure no injuries to their "collection operatives". What happened to good old-fashioned bin men?
