Fri 21 October - Ah that's better...

I'm up the back of the train today and we come in on platform 10 again, this time no queuing to get out. It worries me sometimes the little things that niggle me. And the distorted sense of satisfaction I get from solving them, or at least working around them!

Home on the 18:12, it leaves a minute or so late, but the driver's making up for lost time!

An extract from my first post best sums up what this is all about.

"Perception is reality" was one of the many glib phrases my ex-boss used to regularly use. Well my reality is that I have never had a full week of the train that I want to catch running on time. Let me rephrase that somewhat inelegant sentence - I don't believe that of the ten scheduled trains that I would wish to catch in any given week, all ten have ever run as scheduled. Ever. In over four years of commuting on the Sandringham line, my perception is that at least one train per week is either delayed or cancelled.

That's probably a pretty bold call, so to turn my perception into reality, I plan to keep a diary for a while and we'll see how often Connex can deliver me a full week of reliable services. Yes, I know that's a little self-centred, but isn't that the whole point of blogging?
