... Sam and I are supposed to be going to Twickenham to see England play Fiji. Tickets for the stadium and the train already bought. A nice dad/son day out, eh?

That's Saturday 26th August.

And some of you probably wonder why I don't contribute to the weekend plans any more.

I know the strikes are supposed to inconvenience folk, but it's still a pain.

No details yet because the RMT waited until the very last minute (ie yesterday) to announce the strike.

Even if there's a limited service, I would bet that the last train out of Paddington at 8pm-ish won't be running, so I wouldn't be able to get home.

When it happened to me and my sisters earlier this year we drove and booked a hotel. Is this not a possibility for you and Sam??
