Mon 20 March - Bikes everywhere...

I may be imagining it, but there appears to be far more bikes than usual this morning - we're almost tripping over each other. I wonder if everyone else is going for the same approach as I am?

Anyway, the 07:14 just scrapes in again this morning.

Home on the pushie, so no idea how the trains are. It's nice not to be left waiting and wondering what's in store...

Anonymous said...: WOW MY FRIEND, UR A GOD DAMN NATIONAL HERO. I just saw this website by accident. I hate connex so much, the service they run is just a joke. The need to sort it out. I never thought I'd say this but I never knew people hated the company so badly to make a blog about it. Good luck with the week of reliable services, when you find it let us know. We won't be holding our breaths but.

Kind regards,

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?
