Painless

A surprisingly painless journey to and from Birmingham yesterday. Trains were on time, they weren't filled with annoying things like other people, and it was all more or less hassle free.
It is a shame that they are not more reliable, because I still maintain that travelling by train is a very pleasant way to get to where you want to go. But you can't beat the complete freedom you get with your own car.
Speaking of which, I have a 3 - 3.5 hour drive to look forward to tomorrow after work, up to Manchester. Its not too bad, just a bit boring when you're on your own, so I'll be looking to buy a decent audio book today to ease the journey.
Oh, and a big CONGRATULATIONS to my friend Phil and his girlfriend - they got engaged at the weekend. Well done to you both.
Soundtrack of the day: "Wincing The Night Away" by The Shins.
