SNAPSHOT! Preston, Latte And A Croissant On The Station.

Okay so I ate the croissant. Today’s expedition is to the Lake District, not got off to the most organized of starts, auto ticket machines are not the most straightforward things to use. Anyway sat sitting waiting for the next train north so that’s and excuse ( like I ever see need one ) for a coffee and a croissant.

SNAPSHOT! Shrewsbury, Waiting On The Station.

Trundling homeward now, just whittling away the minutes until the train arrives. As station buildings go Shrewsbury does have some class.
