Yes, that's bad.

Mind you, I went from Wolverhampton to Birmingham today and in the space of five minutes in Wolverhampton we had Ginsters, Bullring and Visit Wales - Cardiff Castle.

The reason for the trip - Round The Horne, Revisited.

Brilliant :D

1950's. As the loco tender and headboard says "Andy Capp special to Blackpool", straght after this special she was taken to the scrap yard and broken up. Perhaps Dave Bran could reskin his compound :)
