Chadderton Goods Works "Diary"
A list of dates and workings that may be easier to read than the previous versions.
??/??/1985
08675
Was this the last 08 to work the line? Was it possibly standing in for a failed train engine? It was usually worked in the morning by a main line engine so I'm not sure where 08675 worked from. It was possibly Middleton Junction or Castleton.

Is hybrid the way forward?
I was reviewing my personal finances recently, and I realised that a huge chunk of my income goes straight into my petrol tank. I've been hearing a lot about hybrid cars lately, and I wondered if it
might be worth the investment. The problem is, I don't really know the first thing about hybrids.
I found a very useful article on hybrid cars at http://www.autocalculator.org, and if you're thinking of getting a hybrid then you should probably read this, too. It talks about the mechanics and technology, tells you how to drive a
hybrid to maximise your fuel mileage and provides plenty of other useful information. The best thing is that it gives a balanced view, with the advantages and the disadvantages.

Build a website fast
A friend spoke to me about my website today. His father runs a doctor's surgery and wants to introduce himself to patients online. He wanted to know if I knew a way to put together a website quickly
and simply, even if you've never done it before.
As I am asked these questions more and more often, here's the answer: yes, the Do-It-Yourself home page from 1&1 is also suitable for the self-employed and small businesses. This video from
1&1 provides a good explanation.
