A REALLY F-----UP DAY,

In the morning, I wrote my list of things to do
 -Tennis
- Hatton Gardens
- Card to the Bulgarian Ambassador
- Alexander  Mc Queen show at the V & A
- Central library

Tennis was out of the way by 11 . Suddenly the phone rang. It was the KCC librarian asking me to bring back 2 books I had overdue.

I was going to Hatton Gardens but decided to go first to KCC to bring back the books and thought I could take the Hammersmith and City line to Farrington afterwards.

Arriving at Wornington Road, I suddenly felt hungry. I had forgotten my lunch ! I went into the Lisboa. They didn't have my favourite rissole. I had something else instead.

I gave back my books, but suddenly realised I had forgotten to file a small asperity in the piece I wanted to make a mould of.

I headed back home on a 52. Filed. That took another half hour !

Took the Central line to Chancery Lane, Hatton Gardens. Delivered  my piece for casting.

Then took a 243 to Holborn. In Holborn, I thought I'd go directly to South Kensington for the Alexander Mc Queen show at the V & A on the tube. I arrived, looked at my watch. It was  4.15... a bit late if they close at 5.30...

Suddenly, I remembered I had forgotten to do what was on my yesterday list : go to Masbro and Macbeth centres to find a ceramic workshop for next term ! Duh!

In a panic, I left the V & A.

I wanted to head to Hammersmith for Macbeth.

But I still had the card for the Bulgarian Ambassador. I decided to walk and deliver it by hand . When I arrived, the lights were on !  I panicked at the idea of going in and finding someone, so I decided to post it instead.  But I didn't have a stamp, so I'd have to go back to the post office in Notting Hill on the 52.

But the 9 came first. Direction Hammersmith. I thought, Oh well, I might as well get the Hammersmith  and Macbeth out of the way. So I boarded the 9. Raising my eyes from a difficult sudoku, I spotted a post office in High Street Ken! In a haste, I got off the bus and went into the post office for a stamp. There was a queue. I wasted 20 mins.

Still determined to make it to Hammersmith, I wanted a 27.  I got another 9 ! !


The naughty 9 dropped me at Hammersmith tube station where I had to wait another 10 mins for a 27. I made it to Macbeth at 5.45 !!



They didn't have their brochure for 2015-2016 !! They don't even have a ceramic workshop! It's somewhere else!

 I managed to get a 27 back to Notting Hill, got off for the Central library.

They didn't have the books I wanted. I had to order them.

Back to Notting Hill on the 328.


Hopefully tomorrow won't be like today ...
