Utter madness! Seems ridiculous now but it took a good seven minutes for the train to leave St Annes and eventually crawl into Lytham (should have taken minutes!) When we finally reached Preston everyone was a little tetchy and those commuting to Lancaster and London were non-to-plussed at missing their connections. I flagged up to my fellow commuters that I had been keeping a tally in the weeks running up to Xmas. Will aim to get everyone's name on tomorrow's journey and hopefully pen a letter to Lanky Trains on their somewhat tardy service.
Left my sandwich box on train. Returned to Preston train station at lunch to discover it at Lost property (with my tuna sandwiches intact!). Left a first class stamp and handwritten note to thank the kind soul who retrieved the box.
Despite late arrival of train arrived into work with seventeen minutes to spare. Not noticed by team who were busy discussing Christmas drunkeness and the office do. Made sure I left on time, despite there being a reception full of people and no-one to take over from me.
