ROFLH

Steak well done is sacrilege to the French and tomato sauce is heresy I can just imagine what the waiters and Chef's called you.


To keep on topic the only cab rides I've had were at either works open days or on Preserved lines so I can only say I've been in 03066 (at BH) an 08 (at Crewe) and 3F 16440 at the Midland Railway
