After a few days of drought when the mud had started to dry out, the

When we went to the hospital yesterday the visability was down to
around 150 yards, and as we went onto the motorway the flashing signs
were telling us we had FOG, next thing they will tell us when it's
raining. What a farce.

Michael Portillo's Great Railway Journey series is heading towards you
this week. It was very sad to see in last night's episode that all
that is left of Llanwern Steel Works in Newport is the scrap metal

book off course.

Good series all the same.
