    On a CX train and m it’s only slightly less colder than outside on the poxy train
  • The first train done the Sidcup line still hasn’t left btw as the train is stuck at Crayford with a fault
  • Having a nice morning @1StevieG ???

    Nothing like a good moan up in the morning on CL to make one feel better....
  • My dad persuaded me I should try and go in today as I've been working from home all week. Awful decision. Barely got anywhere trains shortened and packed. Massively delayed. Not moving. Oh and it's snowing so I know I'm gonna have massive issues getting home tonight...

    Why did I listen to him....
  • I'm on Sidcup line from dartford - it is packed and stopping at all stations (apart from Albany park for some reason) - strong possibility of an argument breaking out with people who want to get on, but no more room on the train

    Shambolic is an understatement - they didn't even make the train max carriage length
  • didn't even try this morning, jumped on a bus into Woolwich and then the DLR into bank

    Unless your dad is also your boss and was threatening to deduct your salary you should've politely told him to fuck off.
    Yep really should have. The thing is we haven't had any snow in Chatham since early yesterday morning and aren't due any until overnight tonight so it should be running okay... It's not though.

    Same here, well to North Greenwich instead. Anytime there is adverse weather conditions like this I don't even bother going down to the station to even have a cursory glance if anything is running.

    It's smashing it down with snow currently in Chatham mate. I'm getting cabin fever so much I'm going to do some jobs today on foot as I'm off next week ppfpppffffft yeah righto!

    I did go out first thing in the van and whilst my estate is horrible the main roads are ok, although what they will be like after this blizzard I dread to think

    You can come stay at mine if you get stuck Canters. I'll let you 'work from home' tomorrow, dont you worry about that.
  • A momentous day for me yesterday. After working in the same company for 12 years, yesterday was the day I was finally granted WFH priviledges.

    So was all set to WFH for the rest of the week but the wife persuaded me to drive in with her this morning. As it happens, it was right decision as we done Petts Wood to Canary Wharf in 35 mins.

    Noticed there were no PW trains to Cannon Street at all this morning. Is it closed?
  • Any trains running through Plumstead ? . Southeastern web site is showing trains are running on time ( yeah right ) , but my Phone App is showing as everything is cancelled .
  • got to barnehurst for 6.25am train came in at 6.39am got to charing cross at 7.30am, anyone who was on this service will know how apologetic the driver was.

  • have confirmed that the restricted timetable as done today will be in place for tomorrow and Saturday.

    So Southeastern will be offering an already restricted restricted timetable on Saturday?
  • How were they getting home? Am I going to be able to get on one mid afternoon from London Bridge?

    Going to have to suffer it tomorrow
  • Jumped on the 16:59 from Waterloo East, was quiet, easily got a seat. Ran straight through to Eltham as well - better service than normal.

  • Train home is fairly empty. Running about 5 mins late but that's pretty normal...
