Funny old 2nd part of the day..
Take a trailer load of pallets to another depot & pick a trunk up (neither elephant nor tree trunk) but a trailer load of stuff to return to the depot. No trunk to collect so run back empty.

Can you take a truck for service, please? Yep. Change trucks and head off. If there's no truck to bring back, drink free coffee until we pick you up (hoping for the 'no truck to bring back' option 😂

'No truck to bring back' 😎 ☕☕☕

@tyred I am listening to a podcast called 'Seek travel ride' a 2023 interview with Helen Dainty who is a full time cycle tourer and has been for nearly 16 odd years. She has her own youtube channel called 'Hels on wheels' a remarkable woman and has everything she owns on her bike. In my head it is infinitely appealing but in reality, not sure I could do it.

In my head, that's what I was doing whenever I went long distance walking or cycle touring. The idea of being a hobo with the freedom of having my world in the rucksack or panniers appealed, but it usually ended after about a month. Mostly it was running out of energy that had me heading for home, but the first time it was a house insurance policy that didn't cover absences of more than a month, and on the last tour I had to get back because I'd been passing blood on the toilet since the day after I left home.

Nice little stroll into town along the path alongside the River Wey followed by a small breakfast and a couple of coffees. Also managed to secure the tickets to the two main gigs I wanted (2nd choice venue for one of them) and will sort out the hotels when I get home.

Now waiting for the train to Waterloo.

I think we must have passed each other on the platform àt Waterloo

Why do some people think the whole carriage would like to hear their sports commentary, or whatever rubbish it is that they are watching on their phone?

Following our unqualified success in selecting Eurovision songs have the selectors gone on to choose the football team for the World Cup?
