Train adventures


Visited an old friend yesterday who lives in Hindhead in Surrey, we planned to meet up at the Haslemere Beer Festival which was going on a couple of miles away from his house. I didn't want to drive for obvious reasons so I hopped on the train and switched at Guildford to the Portsmouth line. It was a really smooth trip, only took an hour or so. We had a great day sampling various ales and catching up on gossip, for once the weather was cooperative and as you can see from the picture of the home-bound platform at Haslemere station the evening was lovely. Being a couple of old gits, as we both are now, we were very restrained viz. drinking beer to such an extent that we started the session with a coffee and even finished it with one, just living the dream :)..
