End to End

Arrived at Inverness last night at around 8, hotel was next door to the station so quick in the hotel and bed. Train journey was long, went through Newcastle and Edinburgh. Bit foggy in Newcastle on the Tyne. Plenty of snow here, in Scotland, so far. When we arrived at Inverness it was pouring with rain. After 4 hours of sitting next to Ann on the train we decided to swap to a table seat at Edinburgh. This was our first and hopefully last big mistake. The two fattest ladies in Scotland decided to seat next to us. They then piled the table with food, read recipe books and food magazines, whilst squashing me against the window. I have bruises in my ribs where i was elbowed every time one of them put something in her mouth. I now have DVT for sitting in the same position for 4 hours. We were so close at one stage I could read the same magazines as them at the same time, one was reading an article about sploshing, to be honest i found it a trifle distasteful.
