This is my new Google blog, the old one is now set to be read by me only. This blog will have a lot less about work & I hope can not offended anyone at National Express or any other evil coach company's.

The Railway: Keeping Britain on Track Episode 1: King's Cross
Brew drinks and connect people - Coffee Talk Review
I have since got it for the PlayStation 4, as well.
I have also played it on my Lenovo G50 laptop, but since then, that stop working.
I like this game, more easy to relax to, but I am sure that might be the same reason why many might now.
All down to personal taste.
Coffee Talk is a visual novel developed by Indonesian indie studio Toge Productions, and released on 29 January 2020 for Microsoft Windows, macOS, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. The game was released in Japan for Nintendo Switch a day later on 30 January 2020.[1] The game follows a barista working in a coffee shop in a fantasy version of Seattle as they listen to the concerns of the coffee shop's various patrons and prepare drinks. The game features an aesthetic inspired by 90s anime, pixel art, and the lo-fi chillhop genre of music.[2]
A sequel, Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly, released on 20 April, 2023.
A sequel, Coffee Talk Episode 2: Hibiscus & Butterfly, was announced on 31 August 2021.[14][15] A demo was released on 17 January 2022.[16] The full game was released on 20 April, 2023 for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.[17]

In some ways it was a easy day, and in other ?
I top up the soap, it only needs to be done once a day, changed nearly every bin bag, well not the ones that was empty of course.
Toilet paper , I need to use a lot, a lot needed two rolls.
On a 12 coach train, there are only five toilets, when BMU are used, then a ten or nine coach train has six toilets, still people need to use them, as they feel the need?
So the toilet paper will be used much more, with less toilets, and less toilet paper.
After 14:30, I was vacuum carpets, very messy , I do not think I done a good job, still hope that I made the trains more cleaner looking.
I thought only four trains, would be easy, but not that easy for me.
Again I was the last person off, a few times, the four BMU, was very messy, I was the last person off the train.
after work, I did go to the Queen of Iceni, for a burger, a bigger one, but I was thinking the 3ox one was better, for a lower price.
I do like food from Wetherspoons, but for the bargains , pay more, and it do not feel it worth it? May be it just me?

Will There Always Be an England? (1986) - England in mid-1980s
Thursday, 24 August 2023
Thursday
Now on train, East Midland Train 🚆 service back to Norwich.
09:52 Liverpool Lime Street to Norwich Thorpe, due to arrive at about 15:09.
I had breakfast ☕🥞 at Wetherspoons at Liverpool Lime Street, been to three Wetherspoons pubs in Liverpool, but this one seems to best.
There prices are a little more higher than the Norwich ones and some other pubs that I used in the area.
Still very popular.
Just getting to Ely now, at 14:14
Wednesday, 23 August 2023
Wednesday
I got up early, I try to take a bath, just hot wanter for bath and shower, too hot, the sink and toilet had cold water, just not the bath or shower.
I did report this, they look into it (nothing was done).
But I left the bath half full with hot water.
I went out for breakfast , The Fall Well, I had seen it yesterday and it was full, this is another Wetherspoons pub, when I walked past when just walking around, one of the fronts door had a broken window.
Still even in the morning, it was getting full and busy.
After than I did plan to go to Leasowe Castle Hotel, from Liverpool Central Station, there was a shopping centre with CEX, so got two PlayStation 3 games.
1. Bound by Flame for £8
2. Farming Simulator for £5.
I was not sure if I travel Card was valid, but I think both was
I got the 11::25 platform 3 Liverpool Central to West Kirby, well as far as Leastowe railway station. 507011 EMU
I did think, if it was a long walk, then I might not go to the Castle, but I just stared to walk, as it looked on the map just one road, and simple to get there.
I past the Typhoo Tea HQ, on this road, not that I was thinking of tea.
I got to Leasowe Castle Hotel, there was signs saying that the bar was open to the public, so I got a pint.
£5:80.
There was a Leasowe Beer, which was I think £2:80, but that was not on yet, in a few day time.
I was looking at photos from April 1966 when my Dad was there, and met my mum, who was working here was a nurse.
there was two Canadians drinking in the garden, as I was looking at old photos of my mum who had work in Canada, in some bar, in
SS Empress of England , Canadian Pacific Steamships Ltd, Liverpool to Quebec 16th May 1957.
After two pints, and looking at my Dad photos and postcards, I left to go back ,
I got 508130 EMU, the time says 14:03, back to Liverpool Central Station, I found another Wetherspoons then.
The north Western , that was next to Liverpool Lime Street, or could say even part of it?
everything railway , and this Wetherspoons was the better one, or was it so many photos of the railway around , on the walls?
I then went to Nelly Foley's Irish pub, some customers singings, which was nice, £3:20 Guinness.
The Blob Shop, £3:35 pint of Guinness, then I got a pint of "Fab Four" ale for £3:25, in a glass mug.
Cooper's was next, then I went to another bar, but because I did not log it on Four Square / Swarm, and it did not come up on Google Maps, I forgot which one, it was near Lanigans Irish Bar.
I had a pint of Caffrey's, which I have not see on pubs for years, I only know because I took a photo of the pub and glass, and I remember a lot of red.
I then went to McDonald's, which is very near by, I remember eating this back at the hotel, I got the photo of the order screen.
Again I had a little early night.
I do remember in early hours of Wednesday, there was a helicopter flying around, i think there was some Police action, going on.

Tuesday trip to Liverpool
I got up early to get the 05:51 Norwich Thorpe to Liverpool Lime Street, but this East Midland Service was cancelled.
So I got the 05:33 Norwich Thorpe platform 2AA to Cambridge, as far as Ely, 755418 BMU
At Ely I got the Greater Anglia Ipswich to Peterborough service, 755424 BMU, 06:58 Ely to Peterborough.
I then got the King's Cross to Edinburgh train, 07:48 Peterborough to York 801220 EMU.
This was a little late, it was due to arrive platform 5 at York, so I need to get to platform 9, but I was very lucky, this train arrived into platform 9 at 09:02.
then after this train left for Scotland.
802214, this train service started at Newcastle, going to Liverpool Lime Street, 09:04 York to Liverpool Lime Street.
got to Liverpool Lime Street platform 3 a few mins late, just after 11:09.
I had book two night in the Britannia Adelphi Hotel, for £96, a little more than £38 for one night, the last time (and first time) I stay there, that was room 301, I seem to be very luck then.
I found the Richard John Blackler Wetherspoon, I had breakfast here, it was popular, I notice Guinness was £3:88, and the prices was higher than the Norwich Wetherspoons.
I walked around the shops a little bit, sitting outside Liverpool lime street for about one hour or so, then I went to The Celtic Corner, £3:20 per pint of Guinness.
At 4pm, I went to The Adelphi hotel, and booked into this hotel.
This time it was floor 4, I thought he said 404, but he seem to have writing 469, but it was hard to read.
I could not get into 404, so try 469, that was my room.
It was a lot smaller than 301, that was like one big room and one small bathroom, and the door way was like a little walk way, in the middle.
but this was more like a normal hotel room.
Still , it was ok for me.
I then went back to The Celtic Corner , the next pint of Guinness was £3:20, then I went for a walk again, there was a lot of live music in the pub, and lots of Irish pubs.
I also notice, there was lots of people singing in the streets, as well.
I thought it was amazing, I found the Carven Club, or area, but could not make up my mind where to go, so went back to The Celtic Corner , the £3:20 must of been a Happy Hour, I did not see any sings for that, but other pubs around did have sign saying they had a happy hour or cheaper times.
The next pint of Guinness was £3:80, which was still cheaper than Wetherspoons.
I did have a early night, I was thinking of going out latter but felt too sleepy.

FUENGIROLA - Quieter Than BENIDORM ?
Monday
I been shopping at Wiko, St Stephens Street, the ex Co-Op Store, they now got a closing down sale, sadly.
Not everything was on the sale price, some was just at the price.
After that, I went to The Bell Hotel.
I went to bottom floor, it was a little noisy there, will a child screaming and lots of people nearly shouting when talking.
after I had a small fish & chips in Afternoon Deal (£8:18) with pint of San Miguel, after I eating the food, I went to sit on the middle floor.
Now I am at home.
I have smoked all the "Eagle Cigars" Kentucky Cured, from J.J Tobacco Co Ltd, 128 Peter Paul Caruana Street, Cospicua, Malta, had a pack of 25.
Was a little strong for me, still did like them.

Today was busy, lots of trash, too much, that I do not think will ever get recycled?
Too much of our trash is one use, then it is?
I think Reduce, reuse, recycle into something to use again?
But so many years we on track for more waste, and it will take a lot of plans and changing people minds to think and see waste as to change our outlook to waste, and to help us cut this waste down.
I know I am part of the problem, most of us are, we need to change each other opinions and how we live, change our shopping, and get companies to change how they pack they goods.

It was a bt of a bad shift all day, I wish I know how I could do better, but I do not, may be I am the cause of all the problems, many people will never talk to me because they have a free will to have that view point, not matter how much I hate it.
I can not force other to change or like me, I need to give them reason to, and if I do not like myself, well I give that to others.
No one is perfect, but each day we can learn to be better than our last day, to gain insight, to learn more, by understanding our own mistakes, and not only thinking of how to fix them, but by working with each other, to fix our problems , and if we think we know better than everyone else, proving that by helping other fix they problems , too?
I felt very alone today , at work, may be it just my view point that was wrong?
