I don't know why I'm doing this... but after having been rudely waken up from a deep slumber by my dear friend NM, and still another hour before I reach London... my blog gets blessed by my visit! hahaha!
Nonetheless... its been a crazy week or so... and it is just building up to its crescendo on Monday! Being a consultant ain't easy!!! Having woken up at 4 in the morning... to catch a 6 am train to Newcastle... travel some 400 miles... reach at 9.45... get to a venue for a day long workshop at 10.30. Wrap up the workshop by 4 odd... and catch a train back to London after that!
And I thought having traveled 1000 miles to and from Scotland on the Bank Holiday weekend was the max I would probably do in the UK this time around!
Fate!
And this does not end here... Sunday afternoon... and I'm off again to Newcastle... have another workshop on Monday and then catch the same train back home!!!!!
"But whatever"... as I have inculcated a habit of saying very frequently nowadays... there have been bright spots during the day...
Imagine being asked to step out of a 1st class coach on the Great North Eastern Railway!!
And not just out to another coach... but literally off the train!!
Alright... don't start thinking too much! I aint doin nething naughty here!!
Thing is... we had a ticket for the 6.34 train... and we never realised it was only for that train... got up on the 4.55 instead...
nevertheless... got down at the next station after the attendant told us we'd have to either pay 150 quid a ticket or wait till our train!!!
So off we get at some old station and head to a pub...
Spend a nice hour and a bit... and get so busy chatting that we almost miss our train!!!!!
had to run and catch the train just as it was about to leave :D
hahahahha!!!!
Another interesting day!!!
ps: when will WiFi on trains come home!!!
