• Thanks, Max, it is an unbelievably stupid policy. It really angered me and I'll be making some enquiries. It's a good job that other staff were so understanding--they must have got fed up with this bollocks, too. There is no way that a train which is non-stopping until Croydon would get anywhere close to full. And even if they had to have such a policy, they should apply it with discretion. This one's going to run and run.

    I'll look out for the Thameslink trains the next time, or will remember to go to Hove straightaway.

    Yes, there'll be more rides later in the year, so we'll look forward to you joining us then!
