Bloody hell its windy out there, I almost got blown down the stairs at Oxford Rd station this am! Bonkers. Anyway, been back at work almost two weeks now and Im not sure I like this commuting by train lark. Firstly, its damned expensive for what is quite frankly a piss poor service. I stand from my local station, I stand at my connecting station, I fight to get on the train that will take me to my destination station and pray to god that I dont get pushed off. Its horrible, it makes you feel like cattle. The number of people they squeeze on trains, if there was ever a serious accident lots of people could be really hurt.
Having said that, it IS easier than leaving far too bloody early in the car. I can just about get home in time to collect the little man from nursery. He loves it, all those babies, he is into everything. He is now a very proficient crawler and is now pulling himself up on things and trying to walk. He can edge along the sofa holding on for dear life and he isnt even 7 months old yet! Plus I think he is teething again, we already have 4!
So being back at work is nice, honestly. I feel like I have the old me back. Of course I am forty times busier than ever now, which is good and its great to get my teeth into something substantial straight away.
Anyway, having said that, best get some lunch before time runs away with me!
