The foreign train is the best way to travel.

I don’t expect to take many more flights in my life. We’re driving to the Netherlands for our next holiday, and wife and son are looking to go interrailing for three weeks next year.
The only time I expect to fly again might be for “once in a decade” holidays that we might take to South America, East Asia and the like.
It’s partly the environmental impact, sure, but much of it is the utterly terrible experience that flying tends to be.

Munich mid-August.
It looks like the 1986 Ravenscourt Park flat (fucking hell that was a tip. £4 a week rent. The police came round to ask us if we knew anything about the dead body outside the bedroom window) is closing ranks.
Mate A in Munich gets divorced this month.
Mate B, now in Chicago, is on duty in July.
I’ve got August.
TBH it’s not a huge cross to bear. Bavaria in summer is great, the biergarten around the corner from his house is really nice, and it would be rude not to slip in a cheeky halb liter in Paulaner im Tal.

Booked my ferries for the trip South in September. Leaving 3rd Sep and return on 22nd.
16-18th is the Settle weekender, now looking for somewhere interesting to go for the previous weekend. Remainder of the time will be at my Dad’s in Hartlepool.
It will be my first time off Shetland for 2 years!
