Carlisle railway station. Half TICK!
I can now half tick off Lockerbie railway station. I say off tick, since I did it way, way back sometime between 2001 and 2003. When I was travelling between Liverpool Lime Street and Glasgow Central, but had to change trains to due to a strike!
It’s first time, I’ve been back since then! This time, I had time to take photos!

On This Day : 10/10/2011
On This Day back in 2011. One of my friends was trying to be funny. When helping me get in the wetsuit, before I had time to get my arms in the shaves he pulled it up, zipping my arms inside the suit. I was totally helpless, till he let me out.
