One of my pals Chris is celebrating his birthday today- we're off to the Severn Valley Railway for what amounts to an all-day drinking sesh.
I see the SVR are having a 1940's weekend, and their website promises World War 2 re-enactments.
Great. So what delights will that include? Firing nuclear devices at Japanese tourists? A mini Holocaust? I'll let you know.

- I'm bored of eating sub-standard food, or the same old things everyday, so I'm on a mission to improve my cooking, and use fresh ingredients, whenever possible.

As this was the decade Orson Welles made his seminal cinematic breakthrough, I understand the SVR are paying respect to the Great Royund One's Legacy by featuring a re-enactment of his Great Breakthrough on platform 4 of Moor Street Station. Featuring a cavalcade of anonymous public transport staff with some am-dram experience shot at a distance using a special lens, "Citizen Train' will feature as a double bill with 'The Train Mutinee'. Weather conditions permitting.
Thanks very much for your comments- you're clearly on the right track.
I understand that the SVR have had a lot of problems getting this project off the ground, as they've had to contend with Great Train Snobbery from Birmingham railway buffs. I'm also pleased to reveal that the on-set catering will be supplied by Beef Encounter.
