My first thoughts we
"Who the **** is Will Self ?",

and on checking via Google, that became:
"Who the **** cares what he thinks about anything?".

Just another minor so-called celebrity - entitled to his own opinions,
but nothing else. People on uk.r probably know more about railways than he does.


He's quite a well known author, but I'm not aware that he's ever shown any
interest in railway before. I would think just everyone here knows more
about railways than he does, so I wonder why he got a VIP tour of the
Crossrail construction site? I wonder if he's writing a book on Crossrail,
or something like that.
