The other reason for my absence from this blog is I've been on holiday. A week in New York. And you'll be happy to hear I visited loads of stations while I was there, and I'm going to tell you all about them over the next few days. Consider this a warning. I'm about to do the 21st Century equivalent of a very long, very tedious slide show all about my holidays.
If this sort of thing is of no interest to you, you probably should go away until about mid-May. Sorry.

Excellent!!!! I wish I had my DSLR camera when I visited NYC about 7 years ago, in particular Grand Central. The Subway kind of confused me (you have to think numbers rather than lines), looking forward to reading about your trip :)
Hope you visited both the Campbell Apartment and the Oyster Bar at Grand Central!
It's probably a bit odd to comment on an 8 year old blog post but since I'm reading your posts in chronological order I've only just got to this one.
That bit about Big Bertha gave me a good chuckle. You've mentioned owning a Speccy in your youth in previous posts - I wonder if you're aware the sequel to one of the Speccy's most iconic games, Jet Set Willy, was conceived in Birkenhead? There's quite a few rooms in the game which reflect this, as was later revealed by the programmers themselves: http://www.jdawiseman.com/papers/games/jsw2/jsw2_programmer_comments.html
