          Just got one of those emails where the only response you can write is

          Really? read it again and think how much of an idiot you make your company sound.

          I've phrased my response slightly better than that but it took some effort...

            Transport woes.

            1. Northern Rail strike yesterday. Not expected to cause an issue but..
            2. Late invitation to dinner in Leeds. Decided to use the train since Transpennine are unaffected by strikes. A suicide (foul play tbc, possibly) at Ravensthorpe had Huddersfield station looking like a TPX depot. No Northern rail alternatives via the cultural centres of Bradford or Wakefield were available either. They eventually took us via Wakey. Return for £27 in an Uber since the only advice on offer at Leeds station for the return journey was 'delayed', and that for a train not due in for 40 minutes.
            3. Drove through a flooded pothole in this mornings gloom. Dashboard lit up like a christmas tree with all sorts of interesting looking lights, including the handbrake light flashing and beeping. I took this as an indication it thought stopping immediately was A Good Idea, so drove much more carefully for the remaining 10 miles to the only garage I've ever noted close by Clientco. We will see what their advices are, but I dread a 16.45 call to say 'we've just managed to have a look, it's buggered, you can't drive it in this state'.

              Well, they've had a look. Replaced a bulb, topped up the oil, and advised the front tyres might be worn. Not what I was expecting but at least it appears good to ride another day.

                Exercise done - after last night's instructor it is nice to have someone who knows what they are doing.

                Learn that the instructors do this class on rotation to ensure it is nice and hard...

                      You have a dirty mind.

                      There are some exercise classes you do however long you do them they never get any easier. There as others do.....
