Wrong side of the tracks

The station was closed as this was a private hire. Instead I had to be fleet of foot to get down to the level crossing to get this alternative view.

With visitors arriving tomorrow I wanted to clean the dining room. The old cast iron inset on the fireplace needed black stove metal polish. Not my favourite job!  A lamp was not functioning so needed to check the plug. Fortunately my first Science teacher Mr Wood ensured we could safely wire a plug. Today it was just a loose wire which needed sorting.
