youngies journey

Cholesterol ! BLAH.

Well it was a day off today and I find myself on the train not just one but seven all the way to Moreton in the Wirral on merseyside and back and traveling on five different franchise's Virgin,Northern,Merseyrail,Transpennine Express and finally Scotrail just to pick up two golf polo shirts but it was an enjoyable day all the same as you can see me ex workmates looked after me with this lovely cholesterol busting breakfast and being free made it all the more enjoyable on my departure from Edinburgh ,when the British Government split our depot in two it meant I no longer worked down the west coast but it was nice of the guys to spoil me on the way down to my first change at Wigan anyway I picked up the shirts I was after as I have hunted up and down the country to find these two shirts which both happened to be in the same shop in my size so the free rail passes I have came in handy indeed and the time it took to walk to the shop was around eight minutes in the rain so when I checked out the shop thinking I would have around an hour for the connecting trains I required I realised I had four minutes to get back there if I wanted to make it,I decided that if I could sprint back to the station I could get back to Edinburgh an hour earlier so I did my Olympic version of Usain Bolt apart from the spandex shorts thankfully and made my train with a bit of huffing and puffing,so after getting the 06:52 from Edinburgh I was back there again at 15:32 so not to bad a day and as I suffer the family curse of high cholesterol also a non smoker and only take a wine around six times a year I try to stay healthy and only take a cooked breakfast like this around four times a year but god it was good and free just how a Scotsman likes it so this is my blip for the day.
