    A trainee has bowled in at 11:45 claiming there were 3 hour delays at his station today. I think he lives in or around Medway. Can anyone confirm this?
    Yes, he lives in Medway

    Their Twitter feed shows no disruptions in that area today.

    That Twitter feed is as much use as Todds_right_hook, last update 2023! Website says no serious delays until 11ish.

    His weekend is about to be ruined!

    Yes, he lives in Medway
    But his caravan will have moved by the time he gets home.

    Maybe he meant he had a 3 hour delay getting to the station.  Surely just a warning for him though. Learn from it. Work on better excuses

    He has worked on his excuses, his one yesterday was "Sorry I had a job interview."

    Will there be a charge to use it?
    Yes, but only one way in the morning rush hour and the opposite way in the evening rush hour.

    Grass
    I’m not certain that grass on the lines is a suitable excuse for being 3 hours late for work;-)

    It was the ‘wrong type’ of grass.

    Perfectly good excuse for being 3 hours late for work. 'Grass was stronger than expected causing a delay to the train journey i normally get'.

    (Wake up bong hit me for six and i had to have a lie down to let the room settle before setting off to the station 3 hours later than normal)
