Unfortunately Brettos attracts drunken scum.

February 8, 2023Gangs on the Metro
February 8, 2023Gangs target the Metro on the line from airport to the centre of Athens.
Their modus operandi to hold the doors, claiming they are stopping from closing, when in reality preventing from opening. Their target I’d forced to squeeze past, easy prey.
Tonight they were running this operation at Acropoli Station in the line running from Syntagma.
Crossing The Alps
February 8, 2023I have crossed The Alps in May, never before in February.
Sussex
February 8, 2023Sussex from the air a patchwork quilt of fields, hedges and woodlands.
Sustainable Gatwick
February 8, 2023To make Gatwick Airport more sustainable would be to assume it is sustainable today. It is not.
The only way to increase the sustainability would be to reduce the number of flights.
North Downs cold frosty morning
February 8, 2023Yesterday thick pea soup fog, hard frost, sunny.
Today, cold frosty morning on the North Downs.
Experience Guildford idea of a joke?
February 7, 2023A primary school child could have produced.
Gibberish, bullshit and outright lies.
This was produced as financial report to support demand for BID Levy. Bottom right hand corner of second page is not a financial report.
They have made many false claims.
Local farmers market organized by the local Council nothing to do with the BID.
Their summer activities, could count on two hands the numbers.
Providing taxi marshals would be news to taxi drivers.

Guildford farmers market
February 7, 2023This morning, seven in the morning, thick pea soup fog. By midday brilliant sunshine.
Cappuccino in Koja.
Not my day. Miss by a couple of minutes train to Guildford.
On leaving Koja, where are my glasses? At the station where I stopped to buy a ticket. On the train?
Sickening. Half the stalls displaying the Great Taste Award scam.
If see award winning. If Great Taste Award, meaningless.
Lunch at Hanki. Only closed. Not open until five.
Coffee at Krema.
Late lunch at Krema.
Bitterly cold.
Ask at station. No luck. No glasses.
Miss my train.
Notes King’s Cross
February 6, 2023Arrival at King’s Cross Station a detour to Notes , only to find closed.
Why are you closed? We are always closed.
I asked for the manager.
She knew me and was pleased to see me.
She apologized and explained close early evening on Monday at eight. Later in the week, Wednesday onwards, open until late.
Not an entirely wasted journey. I picked up a bag of coffee.
