Well, that's all water under the bridge now. 
I thought the problem was that it's all bridge under the water, now.

Following up "Midwinter Lull" On This Day - I have noted on our disruption map "nothing to report" a couple of times in recent days, and JourneyCheck reporting merely 7 lifts out of action. This morning, all we have is a three car diagram on the Reading to Basingstoke reduced to two cars - hardly the end of the earth. Nothing on the Looe line, I note - back in action, or gone so long it doesn't even make JourneyCheck?
I suspect the Looe branch is not mentioned as it was planned to be closed this week due to engineering work. That has been in journey planners for a few months.

At the back of my mind, I had a hazy memory of an amuzing ceramic plaque fixed outside one of my delivery addresses:
... and, from a plaque on the wall at another of my delivery addresses:
Here, on 14 October 1782
nothing happened
CfN.

I now have 425 entries in my table for "On this day" ... but some days with several things happening and some, like today, nothing outstanding or quirky that has been added to my tables. Members very welcome to get in touch or follow up here with what has happened on 26th February in past years!
4th, 19th, 24th and 27th March are still "open" days too. Anyone??
