Sentience in excrement I can accept, after all they cry lonesomely when imprisoned, but sentience in our political system?

Don't take any notice of Rivet Counters and pedants who complain that the map doesn't show the railway on Signy Island.

This would make it the only recorded railway on the Antarctic continent, and by far the most southerly railway in the world. A. Pedant, M. Inst.

Fascinated by it as a kid. Had some strange idea that it was in Wales due to it being in a book of British Narrow Gauge railways. Unfortunately it seems that Irish independence saw its demise. Would have been a great tourist attraction. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lartigue_Monorail#Listowel_and_Ballybunion_Railway There is some film footage somewhere which shows it wasn't as daft a system as you would think. 1 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
