Autumn Trains

This morning I experienced one of my worst commutes. It was so bad I started writing this on the Tube but am finishing it a few hours later. Not only did I leave the house in pouring, driving rain (getting on the train with squelchy feet is never a good look) but also the train I squeezed myself on to took over an hour to do a 17 min journey. And it was packed! Squashed in the vestibule area of a full train with strangers reaching over your head to hold on and breathing on you is never fun. Doing that for over an hour with wet umbrella in one hand and a soaked handbag in the other is the worst possible way to start the day. It also made me very late for an important meeting. The feeling of knowing I was going to be late and that I wasn't able to do a thing about it was horrible. Added to that my blackberry battery was on the way out and I had pretty stressful start to the day.
