Urgh goddamit, hate FGW, yet another cancelled train... Went to Exeter again for a Post Offer open day, and the return train is predictably cancelled, forcing me to get a XCountry up to Bristol and then hop on a train to Reading from there. Wish they'd sort that out.. especially if i do end up going there for Uni.

Btw Griff, how did your trip go today? I understand you were in swansea today for the interview? :)

On the way to Swansea at Port Talbot Parkway, the front power car developed "a problem" so we had to travel from Port Talbot to Swansea at 20mph. Got to Swansea half an hour late.
