What a rubbish day that was!

I don't often have bad days, but today was one of them, with a couple of good highs. It felt live a never-ending onslaught of deadlines moving while I ran after them, left, right and centre. It was all metaphorical and I was actually quite productive, but it was frustrating at times. The first high-point of the day was falafel for lunch, with all the trimmings. The low-point was the sad end of someone anonymous (to me, if not to their family and friends) under a train in Southgate. Kings Cross rapidly descended into chaos, with a tinge of sadnes - no-one likes to complain when the cause is a tragedy for probably several people, not least of whom is the train driver involved. A delightful couple of hours at The Radcliffe Arms in Hitchin, meeting up with a bunch of twitter-mates. Lovely. Then an hour's drive to Milton Keynes to collect Florence at midnight and an hour's drive home. It's been a long day.
