Working Remotely

Today I was working again - which wasn't particularly exciting, as you don't get the interesting work stories to fill the blog with when you're in a little office of your own a couple of hundred miles away. The day passed without incident and without significant achievement (some progress on documentation but nothing to write home about).

This evening Rachel joined us, having travelled up by train. Her journey provided a frustrating contrast with ours - while typically train is more straightforward and less time consuming (but more expensive) and car is slightly longer but less constrained and cheaper, particularly for two - Rachel's journey up did not demonstrate this. She took a little over six hours to make it having had a mess with her ticket printing, a signal failure, another delay and then failing to make a connection. All rather ridiculous, and throws the train vs car decision into sharper relief - at least you never have to worry about not having the right tickets for your car or not having printed them correctly!
