Morning Men. Sadly my 10am in the city has cancelled. I am not prepared to hand over £110.00 of my money to Mr Branson just to come down for a beer. Gutted really as I was looking forward to meeting George and comparing coats with Peter. I'm sure there will be another one soon. Sorry chaps

Problem is if I go down after 11am and return after 7pm its "only" £40. Today however I need to be back by 5pm hence the price hike. Rugby to Euston is 47 mins so prime commuter territory and boy does Branson know it. 1st Class day return is £220 and and at commuter time it is rammed

In preparation for the imminent soaking we've been promised I today am modelling a blue coat made of technical fabric, so you'd have stood out like a sore thumb (not that I won't anyway. Jeans! In the city! I'll look like some bloody tourist).

Shame cause I owe you a beer for the insurance advice  Could be worse too, I'm stuck in a seemingly never ending traffic jam on the M1  The only thing keeping me sane is that I can perv on the extremely attractive blonde woman in the car next to me

Sadly I think I'm going to have to pull out as well. Stuck on the M1 for ages and doesn't look like I'll be clear anytime soon. Means I won't get into Euston til at least half 3 so not worth it  Maybe next time, I may be coming down here more often soon
