More freight on rail

Occasionally, in what I thought was a futile attempt to annoy Jerome, I used to suggest that it would be a good idea if more freight travelled by rail. For environmental reasons, etc. He did a very good job of ignoring me and I thought this subtle pisstaking had had no effect. But I was wrong. One Friday evening I came home to find a message from Jerome on my answerphone. It went something like this:

"Marv, the Post Office has transferred all the post to lorries because rail is so inefficient. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha."

Job well done, then.
