I'm currently lacking an Internet connection, and only checking in occasionally via public hotspots. Thus, my capacity to respond to queries here is likely to be limited for the next few weeks.
Hello and welcome to my talk page! If you have a question, ask me. If I know the answer, I'll tell you; if I don't, I'll find out (or one of my talk-page stalkers might know!), then we'll both have learnt something!
Admins: If one of my admin actions is clearly a mistake or is actively harming the encyclopaedia, please reverse it. Don't wait for me if I'm not around or the case is obvious.

Reassessment

Reposting since it got archived Hi HJ, I hope all is well. I know you are away, but if you get a chance to do this it would be great. One of the conditions of my return was that you would review the restrictions after six months. Since that time has elapsed, I was wondering if you would reassess. Thanks for your consideration.

Just noting I've seen this. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 16:38, 16 January 2013 (UTC)

Okay, I'll lift the restrictions, but for your own sake if nothing else, be careful. I'm not around regularly enough to pick up on these things, but if you start making edits that don't abide by both the letter and the spirit of policy (and relevant guidelines, ArbCom rulings, etc), I suspect it won't be long before you're in an even worse position than you were with the restrictions. For crying out loud be careful. Best, HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 08:14, 17 July 2013 (UTC)

220, 221 and 222

Hi HJ; I made it onto that train - the doors shut 5 seconds after I jumped on. As it was passing us, I forgot to check which class it was - I could have pointed out the bogies. I only noticed when I got off at Oxford that the train consisted of a Class 220 and a Class 221 coupled together, so at the join, you would have seen something like this - notice how the wheels of the Class 220 unit (left) are very much exposed compared to the other; in fact, the only components that obscure the wheel are the brake caliper and that footstep. On the class 221, there is the bogie frame, including one of the suspension springs. On class 220, the refreshment facilities consist of little more than a trolley. Class 222 has the same bogies as Class 220, but has "full" refreshment facilities - you can get hot food, I think that it's via a microwave oven. --Redrose64 (talk) 18:02, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Hey Redrose. I saw you get on the train, but alas it pulled away just as Widefox got to the top of the stairs (if I had a penny for every time that happened...). The difference is obvious now you point it out, thanks! As to the 222, I don't trust East Midlands Trains' definition of "hot food"!

Much as I'd like to, I probably won't be able to get to Oxford at the weekend. I've already committed to Chester and I'd like to support Bristol while it's getting off the ground, and I don't think I can afford a third train journey, even being creative with how I buy tickets. I'll do my best to get to the next one. HJ Mitchell | Penny for your thoughts? 17:57, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Apparently Class 222 also has fewer seats per coach - and therefore more kneeroom - than the other two. --Redrose64 (talk) 13:49, 11 July 2013 (UTC)
I've just found the bit of paper from last Sunday, so I'm updating my user page, but it's only got a few names on it. Around that table, there were ten people at one time or another, but I only have six handles: HJ Mitchell (talk · contribs); Mum's taxi (talk · contribs); Redrose64 (talk · contribs); Rock drum (talk · contribs); Victuallers (talk · contribs); and Widefox (talk · contribs). I'm still two people short. Do you recall who they were? --Redrose64 (talk) 16:35, 13 July 2013 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in an interview in The Bugle newsletter

Hi Harry, In the upcoming edition of The Bugle Ian and I would like to run an interview with editors who have an interest in military history topics and are also active in Wikimedia chapters about their experiences with the chapter(s). If you're interested in participating, I'd appreciate it if you could respond to some or all of the questions at Misplaced Pages:WikiProject Military history/News/July 2013/Interview by next Monday 22 July. Regards, Nick-D (talk) 11:04, 15 July 2013 (UTC)
