Okay, do you have a question or point? I'll tell ask you a question however?

Do travel companies (Expedia, Virgin Holidays or similar) send you emails about holidays you don't want? Do you then post a non-sensical comment about it online?

*I'll go now*

I received this too.. I imagine they have sent it to anyone that they think may perhaps travel through Reading.. Or in fact anyone that has ever bought a season ticket on a FGW (First Great Western) route maybe? That is my guess anyway... Grin Roll Eyes

Which edition is this?

Network Rail, who always have the most up to date website  Grin have No 4 (October) on their website, while FGW (First Great Western) still only have No 3 (June).

I didn't notice an edition number.. It's the only one I've ever received. It's long gone into the recycling bin now too so I can't check  Smiley

I got one too in the post.  Edition 5 I believe - certainly not seen it at Reading station as handouts yet.
