Today’s been a busy one with a flying trip to my Dad’s. My Dad bought himself a new car (well it was his birthday). That means I get his old one! So I went down to pick up ‘The Upgrade’.

I got the train down. It’s the first time I’ve been to London in a long time. But it was plain sailing all the way. I had a few flashbacks to my commuter days. Especially when we stopped at London Bridge.

I’d gone back and forth over whether to take Bert with me or leave him with someone. I think he would have been OK with the trains, but I wasn’t sure. Thankfully two friends came to the rescue and looked after him between them. Sounds like he had a lovely day. You can see how tired he is.

Driving my new car meant I had a rather lovely day too. It made a huge difference on the M25 I can tell you. Let’s face it, the Comedy Car doesn’t go that fast, so made a refreshing change to put my foot down and get a reaction. Going to have to watch I don’t get too carried away. I’d rather not do another speed awareness course…
