The convenience store was extremely convenient! Glad I had somewhere to get a drink after thinking I may be waiting until I was back at Colchester!

New shoes on for Lowestoft parkrun this morning! Finally managed to break through the 40 minute mark with an official parkrun time of 39.59! Feeling really pleased with this and only one very short walking break on my second time going up the hill! #parkrun

Good morning & welcome to #Caturday

Valentine’s reminder: the longest love story you’ll ever have is with yourself, be gentle with it.
Take the sip of tea, breathe deep, and give yourself a little credit today.
You’re already worthy…

I believe it came about after electrification but don't quote me on that.

I couldn't make it to parkrun this week so I made up my own route and did it today instead. Got my 3rd fastest 5k time! #running

View of the sunset from the footbridge at Great Bentley and the station shortly after when the fog had rolled in. A beautiful and slightly spooky end to my day!

LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER RAILWAY.-A long and in-teresting discussion took place at Liverpool, in Common Coun-eil, last week, on the subject of the intended railroad from that town to Manchester, the Council having been called upon, in compliance with the forms of the House of Commons, to express their assent to or dissent from the measure. A division at length took place, when there appeared for giving the assent 16, against it 14, so that the motion was carried by a majority of 2.

The Liverpool & Manchester railway, the world's first intercity line, opened in 1830. But how close did it come to not happening at all? If just two Liverpool councillors had voted differently in January 1826, it might never have been built - or least, could have been significantly delayed.

Also very interesting to note the use of the word 'railroad'. A lot of people see it as being purely an American term.
