Mother knows bestWhen travelling from Newcastle to London I was once advised by my over cautious mother to catch the train a whole day early because of the impending snow storm that was making its way south from Scotland.
Nonetheless I woke London the next day to find that Newcastle was completely free of snow - but no trains arriving in London. It transpired that the lack of trains was because the service I had intended to travel on had met with an unfortunate incident at Great Selby when some halfwit decided to park his Land Rover on the tracks to have a nap.
Thanks Mum!
