(With apologies to Private Eye) So Farewell then InterCity 125 In hindsight You helped save the rail network So I'll let you off For displacing Deltics and Peaks E.J. Valenta (Aged 4500 3/4 horsepower)

New arrival at Leicester… 60060 basks in the sun between passing clouds #tug

Just been out for a walk after dropping my daughter back at her mum’s, and stopped for a chat with my mate half way round… #JoinIn

Current poison, wondering whether I’ll still be awake at midnight…?! #JoinIn

Bit of kettle action at Leicester… photographed through the window of a 158 hence the slight reflections

Another fantastic show from Gary Numan! Never fails to deliver, hope No. 1000 is as good as 999 last night!

Waiting at Leicester for the first train of the day #11hourstillSiouxsie

Here. In the queue. #80minutestillSiouxsie

No photos during the gig but got me a cracking spot…!

#65minutestillSiouxsie

So… an hour and 40 minutes later… that was an experience. Siouxsie was obviously enjoying herself… fantastic set list, 2 encores… prowling the stage like a cat, dancing, high kicking… the voice is maybe a little lower down the register than “back in the day”…

2/ She had the crowd in the palm of her hand, a vision in white somewhere between a 1920s silent movie star and Fenella Fielding in Carry On Screaming (and I mean that in a good way!). Anyone who has tickets for upcoming gigs, you’re in for a treat!

If you watch carefully you can see my hand in this clip 😂 instagram.com/tv/Cr1VRZ1okfp…

After a fantastic night last night, back to reality today. Last hour chilling in Amsterdam before heading back to the UK for a weekend on call…

Don’t forget folks, a Goth is for life and not just for May 22nd #WorldGothDay

Dishes done. 6th load of washing in 2 days in the washer. Time now for feet up, cuppa and some diverse sounds…

Wish I hadn’t started putting my record collection in alphabetical order now 🤣
