Nearly made me late for court. 781

You may not need this line, though I note from another ng that your attendance in court was on a charge of a motoring offence, so if at any time the beaks or the doctors deprive you of your licence (as they should the lorry drivers who collide with the bridge) you may be glad of public transport.

This line has the potential for much greater use. Newquay is an important resort, relying on visitors travelling long distances. They may welcome alternatives to driving, and on Summer Saturdays there are several long, long distance trains on the branch. Next Summer there will be a daily long train from London.

The vanishing veil
In the UK it's considered rude for people to cover their faces when interacting with you. Covering your face is also, in some circumstances, loveually provocative. Many of these Muslim women...

As we've tried to drum into you the problem is not the bridge, it is people let loose on the roads who do not appear to know how to drive their bvehicles. It was not a train that held you up, it was a road user. The bridge did not jump out and hit the lorry - the lorry driver drove into it. If your camper van was parked at the side of the road and someone drove into it, you wouldn't blame yourself for parking there, you would blame the driver who drove into it.
