About half way to Leeds - on a different route that gets me there slightly earlier than originally scheduled.

Edit - don't worry Yorkshire types, I'm not stopping, just changing trains.

I had to go to Leeds once for a job interview. Not impressed and the job turned out to be for a sort of sales rep to farmers. Even less impressed and got an overnight train back to Glasgow.

That's just another day's shopping done
