Hi Rohan it was me.... And thank you so much, I got 2:59:57 👌 literally fell to bits as I hit Buckingham palace, thanks to you & a minute in the bag I snuck in... You are a legend sir 💙
Happy 30 year 'railway anniversary' to me.... 29 years being proud to be a guard & feel appreciated by the majority (especially our elderly & disabled passengers) & 1 year (the last) where everyone has an opinion on my job... With some wanting us gone 😞

@RMTunion
Was on the picket line at Shrewsbury today & the support has grown with every day we've been there, even had people off the street joining us today.... Brilliant
So on Valentine's Day Tammie said 'yes'😍 after a couple of goes each at marriage it will be a very long engagement, both just so chuffed & also happy to sound more serious than 'boyfriend & girlfriend' after 4.5 yrs together 😉😂 we'll sneak some celebrations in tho 😉🍻🥂

Just paid for 100+ pics of me at
@LondonMarathon
& reckon I'm drenched in all of them 😂 but amongst them I've probably found my favourite ever.... This is what a sprint finish after 26 miles to get your PB by 7 seconds looks like 😊
@Football__Tweet
Normally the answer would be Zidane when he's in any line up... Apart from when the Original Ronaldo is in it 👊 he just shades it in my eyes

Late yesterday morning my dad Mike passed away, myself, Shelley, our mum & Ashley were able to spend the last 24hrs with him & though it was obviously horrible I'm so glad we were able to do that.
Sleep well mate you deserve it after how ill you've been

day/weekend is a great day out.... 'ruined by 90 mins of football' 🙈 only way is up from this point 💙
#MonTheSouth
Dumfries bound... Due to cancellations on my usual trains I've had to leave an 1hr 15mins earlier than usual BUT it'll be worth it when I'm having breakfast & a pint in Spoons before 1100 😊

#qos
So the main event today is me & Young Tammie celebrating another year together... 4 whole years 😍 may not sound much to some but its been the absolute best, took me a 45 years to find her BUT definitely worth the wait
#FeelingLucky
Celebrating 5 years with this absolute stunner today 😍 and what a last year we've had, loads of adventures, laughs and some bling 💍.... I'm a lucky lucky boy

game to watch on tv... It almost feels like a 'football day' 😊
#MonTheSouth
And there it is 😞 AJ sacked way too late to make a difference, the blame falls solely at the door of those in the boardroom.... need to get everything right from this point onwards to stand any chance of bouncing straight back up imho

Get in there Queens 👊 absolutely made up for you

@BigLeee69
& his fiancee Charlie's daughter Ariya-Mai Sky Hall was born (7lb6oz).... mum & baby are well & dad, granddad & everyone else are as chuffed as can be... Ace 😍

I wasn't on Twitter in 2008 but I guarantee this picture would of been on there a few times 😊 loved watching that again & far more relaxed watching it tonight than being at the game 😂😂
#qos
Had a jig around & moved some bits to the other wall.... AND have to say I'm made up with this now, the 2 signed shirts look brilliant together 👌 time to stop i reckon haha
#qos
#CaptainMarvel
Highlight of the day though was meeting
#qos
legend Tommy Bryce the scorer of a 1min 46 second hat trick 💙 and still we couldn't get George off his phone 😂
Happy anniversary to myself & 15B, when I moved in there it's safe to say I was at my lowest point & not exaggerating when I say getting those keys probably saved my life, 4 years later I'm living my best possible life ☺💙🏠
Finally arriving back in Shrewsbury... Only about 19hrs after I got up 🙈 trains were far from good today (being polite) but hey ho it adds to the day... Certainly met some 'characters' on the last leg 🥴🍺😂
Last Valentines I watched Trainspotting 2 at the cinema & did steak club at Spoons (both alone) & loved it tbf.... this valentines I'm apparently being spoilt by this one 😍 didn't think it was possible but life has got even better
#LovingLife
Not the season we wanted BUT at least we can hopefully sort it all out this summer & be battling at the right end like we should be... Good performance & the 3 points were never in doubt, & always a pleasure to see so many friendly faces 💙
#MonTheSouth
So I met my son
@BigLeee69
for lunch, a pint & a belated birthday prezzie today & I get the best present... Charlie & him are having a baby & I'm going to be a grandad in May ☺

@RMTunion
isn't the train drivers union 🙈
replace *drivers with Guards & it'll read a lot better Henry 👍
Just had a call off my boss telling me she'd had a lovely e-mail off an elderly couple I'd assisted with their travels, they'd had info 'on-line' BUT it appears my advice based on nearly 30yrs of experience as a guard turned out to be better... Maybe we are useful
@RMTunion
😉
Not sure who the mayor of Dumfries is but I'd be worried if I was him/her ... As
@WullieGibson
could probably do that at the same time as captaining, managing & getting 'man of the match' for Queens 💙😂

@BBCBreakfast
If I was as bad at my job as

On my way north for my last

as already arriving an hour later than I should have 😭 & leaving earlier too coz of them, my 7 hour stay is now a 5hr one 😡
Going to work at 1830 on a Saturday doesn't usually fill me full of joy.... BUT
#Queens
have made it very very bearable, what a turn around... AJ deserves so much credit 1👏 as the vultures were definitely circling
#qos
I know some will have cups & plates that have been in their bedrooms longer but today is Tammies & my 1 year anniversary.... I'd given up on all that malarkey before I met her but safe to say she's been bloody ace & it's been absolutely brilliant, I'm a lucky boy 😊
