Hey guys
I have a few days off work and decided to plan some activites (in my geeky kinda way! ). I thought i'd go to London, see my folks (get some home cooking and a bit of spoiling as you do), go and see old Vincent Van Gogh at the Royal Academy (tomorrow and very excited) and do some cycling. So I pre-booked my train tickets to London and checked I could take my bike ok - no problem. Tickets non-refundable.
Pretty pleased with my planning. I then spent the week preceeding my little trip worrying that I wouldn't get my bike on the train because it would be too busy, it wouldn't fit (cos there might be another bike already there) and I couldn't get a new ticket (cos I have no spare money) and then I wouldn't be able to see my folks (thus dissapointing everyone) and missing Vincent (which would have really upset me) and then staying home in Brighton in my misery. I mean, gawd!! A little tiny journey into London, with my bike, that I actually have done before (and ok, still always anxious) its is just bonkers! I have to stop doing this!!
You'll all be very pleased to know that it all went smoothly and I got myself and bike onto Train with plenty of room. I won't mention that I ran for the particular train section and made sure I was first in line...
I joke about it but everyday its something like this...I will strive to beat the demons! I will now say goodnight to you all, I am safely in London watching the winter olympics and a very strange sport called curling...which looks very dull (apologies to all curlers out there!) so off to sleep me thinks
