Hazel & I went to lunch with her bridesmaid that she grew up with but has not seen in some years. We all sat down to a jolly roast pork lunch & the talk flowed.
Mine host told us of a chap he knew who was much into steam railways & being a Somerset man to his teeth, was enamoured of the GWR & all its works, being especially a fan of IKB.
Waxing lyrical about Devon & Cornwall, the south coast & such, he was pressed to say where in Britain he'd liked to have been born if not in the south west. This caused his brow to furrow as he stoked his pipe & blew out the match. "Well" he said uncertainly "LNER ran a good show, too......"
I just needed to share it........
