For those of you who arnt on my sisters list, and havent spoken to me in the last couple of days, we finally completed on our flat!
Anyway, thats not what I'm writing about. Today I headed up to Newcastle to seem a friend (Moonlettuce), stroke my cat, and say what bits of crap my mam and dad wanted to palm off o... erm to generously donate to the cause.
All I had to do was get to the right train station by 11:00am.
This involved a rather interesting morning...
7:00am Alarm goes off I shower, and eat some breakfast.
8:00am I do some more packing
9:00am Leave house....Ohhh fuck
At this point I realise I remember I have to take (Gently Snoozings) car back to his place... not a problem I have 2hrs to go.
9:15am Arrive at Gently Snoozing/Her Welshness 's place... ohh fuck Ive forgotten my train ticket. Panic!
9:25am Arrive back at home, grab ticket, drive back.
9:35am Jump out of car, run up steps to GS/HW flat and stuff car keys under the door. Sprin... ahh... I mean jog to station.
9:40am Arrive hot and sticky at station
9:45am Jump on train and collapse.
10:20am Arrive at Paddington Station with plenty of time to spare. Get out ticket and give birth to a kitten! It says St Pancreas Station!
10:30am Jump on circle line train
10:50am Arrive at St Pancreas to discover the bastards have moved the entrance.
10:55am Run up on to Platform 1!! only to discover the train is 10 minutes late
FUUUUUCCCKKKKKINGGG HELL
Collapse.
Anyway the journey was pretty shit as well:
London to Luton Airport
Luton Airport to Hitchin (by bus)
Hitchin to Petersborough
Petersborough to Newcastle
Arrive at home with a neck like rock.
Anyway... enough whinging!
