They think THEY had a bad start to the New Year!!

Miss Nicola Blackman - doyenne of the West End stage and soon to be departing these shores for New York - is currently appearing in the well-received ALADDIN at the Palace Theatre, Watford. This evening there was the offer of comps for the 7pm show so after double-checking the Transport For London and Silverlink Trains websites for train times and possible hold-ups we turned up at Euston in good time for any of the 3 trains leaving around 6pm.

Well there was to be no BEHIND YOUs or OH YES IT IS!! for us.
All local Silverlink trains were cancelled out of Euston due to a signal failure at Watford Junction. More like some shagger not turning up for his shift.

*cue rant about London holding the Olympic Games etc etc.*

You forgot to say it was pouring with rain, the station was packed to the gunnels and that no-one pulled a gun to shoot them all. You were most restrained and I'm sure Miss Nicola Blackburn had her best performance ever. And you missed it.

"Behind YOU!"

I read that as "Honor" Blackman at first, and got quite excited.
