Signal Failure & Golfing Incident at Ruislip


As I half suspected it might be, this mornings journey in to work was indecently interrupted by signal failure just short of the Ruislip station platform. Peering out of my carriage I was treated to the picture of two golfers at Ruislip Golf Club teeing off. I was, I have to admit, rather chuffed when one of them sliced his shot and the ball whizzed towards me hitting the side of the carriage with a resounding thump. Serve them right I thought for having the indecency to play golf on a workday. After half an hour I decided to take the bull by the horns and disembark at Ruislip, walking up the last bit of the line to the main platform ( station staff glaring at me )and then catching a bus to work. Once I arrived at the office Beatrice produced a wonderful cup of coffee from my private stash of Blue Mountain Blend and I have now settled down to the usual round of calls and meetings. Betty called to say that she is having morning coffee with Amanda who has a new baby, so the Rasberry Sponge will take a bit of a pounding before I get home. Betty is thinking of coming up to town this afternoon as she wants to meet her new catalogue designer for Betty Twyford's new range of products. She has got the first items up on the website at http://www.twyford-cookers.com/ and they do look wonderful. Oh well, back to work now !
