Jeepers creepers, what's that on the sleepers???

“The train now standing at platform number two has just dumped a double dollop of doo-dah on the track...” Not one of the usual announcements to be heard at Stourbridge Junction station, I must say, but one that could justifiably be made on a regular basis, judging by the amount of doo-dah (human variety) and associated paper products that greet rail visitors to the town.

A Moral Dilemma and Lesson, by Bruce Sallan

When life throws you a lemon you can make into lemonade or just endure the sourness of it all. I had that choice recently, as it involved a right and wrong, based on my belief systems and an learning opportunity for me and my boys.

The government has to go further on transport.
Posted on 10:12am Monday 15th March 2010
Birmingham to London in just 49 minutes: the promise of the new High Speed Rail Strategy published last week by the government. Great and about time too. But the government transport policies do not go far enough and will not, in themselves, lead to the economic renaissance of the Black Country.

Up close and personal...(3)

Fly on the wall. Voyeurism. Socio – documentary. Peeping Tom. I suppose the term you choose to use for watching other people depends on which side of the fence you think you are sitting. Call 'Big Brother Celebrity Whatsisname Why do You Think I Should Watch This?' a fly on the wall documentary, and it's possibly alright, in some eyes. (Shed a tear luvvie, they'll lap it up..) Call it voyeurism, and suddenly it's something else.
