My morning:
Work up early with a hangover.
Just found out parcelforce delivered a tonne of shit to "my local post office", yet I never got the slip informing me.
Thought I could nip down to the PO and back with plenty of time to get to work.
goto PO, long queue, it's not there, "try the other branch it's just as near".
goto other PO, long queue, it's probably not there either so I go home to phone parcelforce.
It's in London bridge, just about local, but not really.
Go there, long queue, get parcel, too big to carry (part of it is a trackpump).
Have no choice but to walk it back, 30 mins.
get home, pump up almost flat tyres with new pump.
Lovely.
set off to work, halfway in get a puncture.
I think I got overzealous and went to over the recommended PSI
3 hours late for work. (It's not really a job of work, it doesn't matter, but it's still shite).
