I left the house at 6:30am to get to Edinburgh for a class I have at 9am. I got in at 10:30am!
The day started with the alarm not working again! Note to self...buy a new alarm. Given this Alison said I could take the car and that way I should still get to Edinburgh in time for class. Things were going well until I joined the A8 just as the road was closed due to an accident a couple of miles ahead. The traffic moved about 100 yards in 3/4 and hour when we were directed off the road by the police. I had no idea where I was but found the M73 and thought I'd try and go to Edinburgh via Falkirk. I did not get far before I hit stationary traffic again, at which point I made the decision that there was no way that I would make it to Edinburgh on time.
I turned back to Glasgow making it back in time to spot Alison and Robert standing at the bus stop. So at lease I got to give them a lift to pre-school. I then took the train into town and then a train across to Edinburgh. When I got to the barrier to leave I could not find my ticket. Despite my pleading with the guard I had to go and buy another ticket so I could get out.
Thankfully the day improved and the journey home was "normal".
makes the thought of me next door to your office talking loudly on the telephone almost bearable, doesn't it!?!?!? :-)
Sorry to hear about your bad day.
