My replacement First Capital Connect ticket is very sentimental
Why!
It was issued on Tuesday evening and the first time I used it, yesterday morning, it played up..... Disappearing into its own 'Bermuda triangle' the barrier at St Neots station
It refused to work on all the London barriers both in the morning and evening journey so when, on my return journey home to St Neots, I was just about to ask a male First Capital Connect staff to let me through (as I slotted the ticket through the barrier, waiting for it to scream 'seek assistance')....... It allowed me through the barrier without a hitch!
And this morning? This morning, it worked!
Fingers crossed that it doesn't throw a wobblie in London
