Thank you all for your kind messages. Betty, I'll be taking my Kindle and my Sudoku so that will keep me occupied. I'm travelling first class in a quiet carriage so I shouldn't have to put up with all the mobile phone calls. We did that last year on the way down to London and it was great. We forgot to book the quiet carriage on the way back and we had very loud conversations and mobile phone calls almost all the way - and that was just from ONE man! Hazel
