We are going to the Ship Anson pub by Portsmouth Harbour station
As an aside, what are peoples views on wearing colours to Pompey away, I’m happy to, but my mate is very much in the not wearing any colours to this fixture ?
If you wear them don't be surprised if you ger verbal abuse.
To be aware there’s currently No Bexleyheath line as someone has been hit be a train
Sadly I was on that train, 1st carriage too, so saw/heard the impact. Emergency services got there extremely quickly and whilst it seemed an age to sort, I missed my original train to Fratton, we were on our way after 80 minutes or so. Not sure of the reasons why that lady was on the track, but very sad that 1) she lost her life and 2) the driver had to experience that. Kind of took the gloss off a good away day.

Very sad all round, always feel for the driver some never return to driving after an experience like that (they often end up working as shunters in the depots, sidings and yards.
