I'm a programmer ... I'm lazy and have written a program to do it  Filling in the first batch: 6. Bristol Temple Meads 8. Dawlish Warren 10. Barnstaple 11. Newton Abbot 14. Didcot Parkway 15. Worcester Shrub Hill Personally, I can never forget that a particular town (not in the FGW▸ area) has an anagram of "Wanker" - thanks to Jasper Carrot,, and the fact that I knew someone who moved to there. |

...by someone who apparently thinks that "A Merchant" is an anagram of "Carmarthen". Now, I may have had a few, but I'm pretty sure the former has only 9 letters whilst the latter has 10. We're missing an 'r' somewhere...

I do like the idea that I travel regularly through "SPLATTERED EMBOLISM". I tend to avoid the "Lofty Wide Baboon" because "Yacht Paw" (not on the map) is more convenient. My local station is "Shat Morphine" And there's the station that I regularly travel to that I try and avoid naming on the forum for superstitious reasons - but I think I'm safe in mentioning "Not Tuna".  I'm disappointed to note that "Helm Mask" is not on the map...... |
