Nice weather - see - everywhere has it's good points.
Even London.
That slip road that takes me onto the M1 and back home, or the departure platforms at Euston station are a wonderful sight.

St Pancras is even better. Sculpture, a couple of pianos should tinkling the ivories take your fancy while waiting for a train, good bars, designer shops, high class eateries, five star hotel, the longest champagne bar in the world, next door to the British Library (home of the Magna Carta and the manuscript of the Canterbury Tales) and all contained within an iconic British Victorian design. Film location in the Harry Potter series, too.

Much too classy for a trainload of scruffy Mancs.

Does it have any fucking trains though, fucking posh twats putting pianos in a train station. Some wino/junkie probably lives in the bit that opens up.

It has underground trains, overground trains, commuter trains, inter city trains, international trains and toy trains. There's just so much damn choice.

There was a huge christmas tree up in December.

Made out of lego.


Because we can.

Harry Fucking Potter?
Dungeons and dragons for spoilt posh kids and geeks with no lives.
We have gritty urban realism, and estates where Shameless was filmed.

That's probably why there is no direct line to Manchester from St Pancras then eh?! If you've ever got the train from there into that dump they call Paris then we show the French up, beating them at the game they claim to have invented - "pretentiousness"

Gimme a closed platform and a tannoy announcer you can't understand any day of the week. rail isn't supposed to be about Lego trees and Piano's.

Oh we get that too - every second announcement is in bloody French.

I think it's basically embarrassment about where the trains go to (you know, Sheffield, Derby, Leicester). 'Pas Devant Les Domestiques' sort of thing.
