Getting to work about the same as usual. At work, well that was a different matter, at one point I managed to get 3 miles in a staggering 4 hours

I dumped my car 3.5 miles from home last night to save being stuck in traffic on the A2 for hours and ran home the rest of the way towing a sledge I'd bought for the kids.

Today got up late and got two buses in and got here at 930, no problems. have the running kit if I need to run home.

It took me ten minutes extra prying much car off a wall, as i came round a corner at around 4 mph which was apparently 2 mph too fast and skidded off the road into a wall. Luckily i hit a green Wheelie bin which stopped any damage to car as Wheelie bin crumpled.

So I've finally found a use for the green bins woo hoo.

40 minutes for whats usually a 30 minute journey. Only because I was held up at temporary traffic lights for ages. I reckon tonight will be a problem again though.
