Yeah, bloody optimists. String 'em up, I say.

"The Northern Ticket Hall is forecast to be opened three months ahead

A nicely qualified statement - hopefully open by December, but leaves
open the possibility that it could fall back to the original scheduled
opening date.

The alternative would have been to keep completely and totally schtum
about any attempt to open it early in time for the arrival of the
'Kent domestics at St P - would that have been preferable, Mr Perry?
