    Probably Goose eyelid and dandelion root ones on a bed of dry ice and rose petals...

    (I am overstating this...the food I had was actually very nice, and the staff were really good...it just wasn’t what I expected)

    Maybe if you include a side note about Laura Plummer or Melissa Ede, it might.

    Trips to London are going to get a little more comfortable, this is the new Hull Trains Hitachi Class 802, due to enter service next year...

    Hopefully the trains will be quicker and more reliable too! There's been way too many cancellations over the last 12 months

    They might need them quicker after one caught fire at Welwynn station today. All passengers got off safely thankfully.

    Unfit for purpose. My dad was on a Hull Trains carriage a few months ago which set on fire. Wouldn't surprise me if it was the same one.

    Work is already underway as the ceilings and certain walls have been demolished, the place has Listed Building status but only for the outside as far as I am aware. Many of the old cast iron radiators (think of the old school type radiators) have been taken off the walls. As this picture shows there is a leak in the concrete decorative guttering, there used to be another leak around the corner but other than that the building has been kept reasonable considering the hammering it has taken over the years. The odd thing is that even though work is underway there are no placards indicating the contractors or even that the building has been sold, the big plus of course is it's own car park right in the centre of the city, which originally was an exercise yard for the kids who attended the place in the 1900's. With the Listed Building Status the window frames have to be replaced with the same, as has happened to the old Victoria Children's Hospital on the opposite corner of Londesborough St, but around the back some of the corridor windows have been replaced by modern UPVC frames, I'm not sure if that is because that area is not original as that part of the College was destroyed in the bombing in WW2.
