Finding Refuge from the Rain at Teignmouth Station - 16/10/24

[@ChrisBrightmore]

Hi Bill that's proper rain, days like that bring back memories of my train spotting days at Sheffield Midland in the 60's where they old waiting rooms with a coal fires, and we could nip in and out for a warm,🔥 happy days

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Crazy to think of Coal Fires being in public places these days isn't it? My Auntie had a coal fire - I was fascinated with it 👍👍👍👍

[@ChrisBrightmore]

Yes Bill that's right what I do remember is a big guard around the fire place, growing up we had a coal fire in the living room just one fire for the whole house! no central heating in those days and frost on the inside of the windows! Take care Bill

Thanks for the pictures of the fish.They are doing well.We remember you going to the garden centre in the car to get more fish.That was a while ago

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Yes, that's right - Long time ago - No teeth then 🤣 - Like I said though, when everything is as it should be, there's really little to say / talk about with the pond - But rest assured they are all healthy, fed daily, & very much loved 👍👍👍

One of the nice things about Teignmouth station are the beautifully painted canopy support columns. Very decorative, very Victorian.

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Couldn't agree more! They are lovely 👍👍👍

[@mrbigbadtrev]

Thanks for venturing out for us in such awful weather but enjoyed the station visit as always😺. Lets hope it eases for the pasty trip and the curry trip😸. 😺

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

It did mate, except that when I went down for mums pasty, they were closing up early, as they didn't do a very big bake that day, due to weather - Meaning she didn't get her pasty 😥

[@JeffreyBrookes-bd7zh]

Thanks for braving the thoroughly miserable weather Bill 👍

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

No worries - You are very welcome Jeffery 👍👍👍

[@Trekon2]

Your fish are extra wet now aren't they ! Well what else could you have done on that miserable day but do some train, gutter, and people spotting, never mind all good and thanks for going out so that we didn't have, try again another day, thank you for your report Bill 👏👋

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Yup, not a nice day at all weather wise, but at least I managed to amuse myself anyway 👍👍👍

[@robcaddick]

Hi Bill, that was a wet one wasn't it? The fish are thriving now aren't they under their covering. Fair play to you to get to the station, I bet you looked forward to your curry that night. See you tomorrow mate. 👍👍👍

[@BillsPhoneTeignmouth]

Yes it was. Fish are indeed thriving - Like I say, no problems with them, so little to report / talk about... Glad you enjoyed it - See you tomorrow Rob 👍👍👍
