At the risk of reinforcing my reputation on here as a functioning alcoholic, I feel the need to report the latest step in the nation's march towards Prohibition. We've just been informed by LNER that our train to Inverness will be 'dry'. This is not just to say that they won't be serving alcohol - no alcohol can be consumed on board.
