Lord Bracknell
On fire
Final whistle ... into Dick's Bar;
First in the queue to be served;
Settle into a comfy seat, to enjoy a pint of Harveys;
10.30 - walk down to the station;
10.32 - wait for two minutes to be allowed on to the platform;
10.37 - reach platform and walk to the end where the front of the train will arrive;
10.43 - train arrives, get on, find a seat;
10.44 - train leaves;
10.50 - arrive in Lewes;
Walk to car, parked 5 minutes away;
15 minutes later - back indoors.
The only thing I don't understand is why so many people wanting to go to Eastbourne let the Seaford train go and waited for the first direct train from Falmer to Eastbourne. If they'd have got on the Seaford train, like we did, they'd have found a Lewes - Eastbourne train waiting for them at Lewes and would have got home half an hour earlier.
