Surrey Phil May 2015 10:09am, 17 May 2015 874 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil Thankfully, the only time that has ever happened to me was when on my way to collect my VLM race pack. Everyone waiting on the platform was very considerate and totally sympathised for all concerned. We walked to an alternative station and made other arrangements. If it happened on race day or if I was due at a meeting, then there's always another day. All those involved in the incident must be given precedence irrespective of their situation.

Surrey Phil May 2015 8:40pm, 17 May 2015 875 posts	Quote Pin Surrey Phil I don't have a microwave simply due to having a small kitchen. Didn't stop someone buying my young son a bed warming toy for Christmas that you heat up in the microwave!
