One confusion that happened on several occasions was people arriving at
Hayes (Kent) wanting Hayes (Middlesex).


I saw that when I travelled to Orpington Hospital, where I worked at the
time. Very unhappy passenger, very late for appointment...

I remember meny years ago as a teenager trying to get a ticket to
Chelsfield


so close to my old workplace...


.... where my family was told I had 48 hours to live in 1973, and where
the doctors and nurses then pulled off a miracle to prove themselves
wrong, which is why I'm still here pestering you all today (it's all
documented on my website.)
