@bertsbooks Marvelling at both the old and the new…

@James1940 @WeHaveWaysPod @almurray @goalhangerfilms This is awesome beans! Hats off! Love it

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@bertsbooks This. Complete delight.

NASA HAS RELEASED OVER 12,000 IMAGES OF THE ARTEMIS II MISSION.

Unbelievable perspectives captured by the Crew! The aurora on the eclipse is incredible.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Yes, many thanks.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help hello. At Waterloo and the 1642 train to Shepperton is just flashing ‘delayed’. Is there an updated time for this service please?

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Thanks, although it’s incredibly disappointing. This is not old and tired rolling stock, the fare to London is frankly extortionate, and this sort of thing happens far too often. Not happy.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help good morning. What was the rationale please for the cancellation of the 0941 Shepperton to Waterloo. Going to be late now 😤

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@bookclubpodhq The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy by Douglas Adams; Master and Commander by Patrick O’Brian; and Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson. Helpfully all had lots of sequels too 📖😁

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help good morning. Am awaiting the 0611 Shepperton to Waterloo service but it is just showing as ‘delayed’. Is there an update to this service please?

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Okay thanks. It’s a pretty dispiriting service.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help hello. I am at Waterloo for the Shepperton service at 1642 but it’s sounding as if it may be very delayed. Can you give an update or offer any alternatives please?

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Thanks. Is it likely to run fast towards Shepperton to try and make up time? Conscious that the service behind it would be the 1712 (although I assume that’s also delayed) and there will be a couple of trains-worth of people trying to get on by 1708.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@JamesMoir10 Absolutely fab. I love a pintail

@dcsandbrook @GoalhangerHQ I’m reading In Cold Blood on the back of your last book series. Loving it. 👍👍

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Ah yes, twigged it now. Thank you. 👍

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help hello. I am awaiting the 1712 service from Waterloo to Shepperton although it’s showing as ‘delayed’. Can you provide an update please?

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@CapelLofft @TheRestHistory @holland_tom @dcsandbrook I have to agree. It has been a joy to listen to and I’m only disappointed that I’ve finished it now. Hats off to @TheRestHistory . As ever.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Thank you, yes; just got to Shepperton. Hope the evening gets better - I imagine you’re having a hard time tonight.

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help hello. I am on the 1642 Waterloo to Shepperton train, which was flagged as departing on time but we’re still here at Waterloo. Is there an update please?

[Matthew Whittington @Gooberfish42]

@SW_Help Yes I did, thank you. Obviously a bit of a nightmare on the network tonight. Do you know the likely arrival time of this service (pretty sure it’s the delayed 1712) at Shepperton?
