The BBC seems to be trying to blame the fire at Westbourne Park (and
I'm beginning to wonder if that is actually where the fire is/was) for
all the chaos but I find that very difficult to believe.


It's an improvement on the earlier BBC News that ran with a top story
about the weather, and how it was affecting roads and trains "and now
over to our man in Bristol" who then described cancellations to
Paddington. And right at the end almost didn't mention - "Oh by the way,
nothing to do with flooding it was a fire".

Obviously this is the first sign of the 2012 Apocalypse. I'm pretty
sure this is a government plot to divert people's attention from the
rapidly approaching fireball, that will wipe out all life in a few
hours time. Alternately, it is the usual problem, our rail network
cannot cope with anything going wrong. We're lucky a snowflake hasn't
fallen on a hilltop in the Chilterns, the whole country would grind to
a halt.
