Chicken Wing Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 I haven't (yet) been able to find a definitive explanation but apparently in the early railway timetables "Up" trains travelled towards London, while "Down" trains travelled away. The majority of rail lines radiated from the capital so you had to know which line to be on. This is still the case today. Edit- no idea how it quoted 3 times! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Today, I also learned that grammatically, you're supposed to say "up to" whenever referring to a town more populous than your own. Never heard that one before. What about trains that run accross the country? Were there none in those days? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granny Danger Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 Scottish fucking weather. Decent all week, with a couple of cracking days and yet miserable on Saturday. F*ck right off! Roll on retirement so I can move to a country where the sun shines. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derry Alli Posted May 18, 2019 Share Posted May 18, 2019 He can't wait to retire to a country "where the sun shines". A sentence previous this very country was decent all week with a few cracking days. I'm not sure moving abroad helps you decide the weather on set days tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You post about this quite a lot, and every time it’s explained to you how certain activities aren’t possible/are greatly diminished by rain but then a short time later you’re back with the same thing. It’s not fucking rocket science. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
