Hope you're not buying into redtube's "grudge against rail

my posts on utl over the years would suggest the exact
opposite.


Good point. They prove you've got a grudge against *everybody*, not
just rail staff.
;-)


I should have known _someone_ would say that. You'd be hard-pressed
to find a bad word about firefighters, ambulance crews, or cats,
though....

Incidentally, was the cat stolen from Loughton station ever traced?


They tend not to stay still long enough to permit it happening.
Besides, tracing is really only successful on a reasonably smooth
surface.


....and the tracing paper tends to get very crinkly as the cat wriggles

Hence, "is really only successful on a reasonably smooth surface."
