Orange bloat face is so transparent People on here ought to work in the real news industry as we saw what he & Putrid Putin wanted This is the ONLY reason why Trump is helping Ukraine 🇺🇦 He needs the minerals to make his sh*tole of a country great again! news.sky.com/story/ukrain...

Freightliner class 66 loco 66539 thrashes through Nuneaton on 30th April 2025 working 4L89 from Trafford Park to Felixstowe I do like to hear a class 66 on full chat

Class 92 loco 92038 passes through Nuneaton on 30th April 2025 working 1M16, the Caledonian sleeper service from Scotland to London Euston

Class 88 loco 88010 & class 68 loco 68003 pass through Nuneaton on 30th April 2025 with 4S43 Daventry to Mossend Tesco intermodal Weird that the 68 was powering as well as the class 88 As I waited for this a pair of class 90’s with a dead 66 passed through behind me Bugger

Done tip run. Nosey buggers wanted a look in the boot to see what I’d got. Told them it’s household but it’s none of their business! Done Tesco shop so rewarding myself with a cuppa t & chocky brownie 😋

That’s me done at Nuneaton So so session for photography & workings. Still, saw members of classes 66,68,70,88,90 & 92 along with 170’s, 350, 390 & 807’s & for me a brand new track machine😁 Always a busy day on the WCML Trent valley

Finally got a pair of class 90’s😁 4M42 London Gateway-Trafford Park liner 90018 & 90015 For some reason I thought this would be a shed but it changed traction at Wembley yard

Thought I’d have a few hours at Nuneaton Around 16 freights & the sleeper will keep me busy. Can’t be in two places at the same time though. Waiting for 4S43 a triple headed liner 90+90+66 shot through platform 5 Then 4L41 ran early again double 90’s Bugger

I reckon Sky News love the orange bloat faced one from across the pond Literally every story on the Sky News app is about the pillock Just in case you’ve forgotten what the muppet looks like👇🏻

Nice new Kronenberg 1664 glass🤔 Look nice in my collection

Oh go on then Been a busy boy so bloody deserve a few Might have something Mediterranean for dinner Might be out lineside tomorrow Just a tip visit & a shop at tesco to do

Old Orange Bloat Trump Plummeting in the polls "Fake News” Fake Presidency

Mondays plan. Get up early✅ (Had just 90 mins kip after nightshift) Wire brush & paint the chiminea ❌ Build new chiminea ❌ Clean conservatory ❌ Do a mini shop ❌ Tip run ❌ Fall asleep for 5 hrs ✅ Tuesdays plan All above AGAIN except falling asleep bit 😬 Get out line side with camera❌

The usually noisy Villa boys are back in work tonight after their night off to watch the FA cup semi final against Crystal Palace. Can imagine them being very quiet tonight To cut a long story short they lost 3-0😂 Boy, I’m looking forward to seeing them tonight

Last shift tonight coming up then 3 glorious days in the garden Can’t wait. May have a break & pop out with the camera if there’s something of interest (to me) running on those iron roads locally. Luckily for me the WCML, Derby-Birmingham & Midland Mainline are all a 15 min drive away

Nice steady night at work Checking barcodes on totes 4 barcodes to a tote 65 totes to a pallet 28 pallets to check Bugger😬

Creature Comforts👇🏻

Chilling watching Wheeler Dealers with Mike Brewer Peugeot 405 Mi16 Beast of a car Gonna go & do some photos for a couple of hours in a mo then bed around 5am ready for work later tonight

Scorchio forecast next week & on my days off too NorthWest Leicestershire Monday 21c Tuesday 23c Wednesday 25 Thursday 24c Lovely stuff☀️☀️☀️

Glass of beer time in my favourite glass in the pubservatory The sideboard in the dining room is wedged full with my glass collection yet weirdly I always use this one. Nothing special about it, just another "borrowed" glass😁

The energy secretary Ed Miliband has been mulling over plans for "zonal pricing", which would see different regions of the country pay different rates, based on supply and demand levels in the local area. I didn’t like the bloody twat years ago Seems he’s a lot worse now he’s got a bit of power

Two more visiting locos have been announced for the SVR diesel gala in May 57003 courtesy of LSL & a class 69 from GBRF The 57 is there for all 4 days while the 69 is only there Sat & Sun

Said it before. Putrid Putin doesn’t want peace he wants Ukraine Orange bloat face doesn’t want the country either, just its minerals Then ship them over to America where he hopes to make America great again Got his work cut out there then news.sky.com/story/ukrain...

Yeah finally back home Garden centres & Tescos shop Fair worn out! If this is what retirement is like then I ain’t looking forward to it 😬

Decided on a trip to the garden centre Have a nosey at some gardening ideas Oh & to have a bacon cob too Got to keep those energy levels up 😂

Colas Rail class 56 loco 56078 is seen at Crewe on 10th January 2025 departing with 6K38, a Crewe Basford Hall to Bradwell Up Sidings near Stoke The last two visits to this area I’ve seen 3 class 56’s on various workings

93001 at Crewe on 10th January 2025 after working from Worksop Was awaiting my train back to Nuneaton which was due shortly so when this arrived I was on the wrong platform & the sun was therefore behind the loco. Never mind it’ll do as a record shot People say a class 70 is ugly😳

Crappy nights sleep! Sunk a few beers last night after a nice salmon dinner so expected to sleep like a log. Nope! Went to bed at 10pm Wide awake at 02:30 Was popping out with the camera today but now feeling very tired Here, have a photo of the restored no 2 cab of a long lost friend

Not seen old useless orange bloat for a while Was beginning to think that someone may have bumped him off news.sky.com/story/ukrain...

Our roads been closed all day Severn Trent are digging & tinkering So even though it’s partially open for access to the roads residents one end only & there are big red & white barriers across the road the amount of drivers coming down & then turning around is bloody laughable Must be blind
