'sup fools? Ah piddy ya all. I'm drinkin loadsa (double) sweeeeeeeet (wee man) black coffee to attempt to counteract the lunchtime pint that's leaving me yawning...
What about youse peeps? Friday friday friday - I haven't enjoyed the sound of that word for so long. For almost a year, in fact. Since the weekends are normally just the same as the rest of the week, but other people have time off too...
show me the way to go home... I'm tired an I wanna go to beeeeeddddd.... I had a little drink a few hours a go, and it's gone right to my heeeaadddd...
Last night I got on the wrong train home again. Heard the announcement "Platform 9 - semi fast train....etc", so I chuckle and point at the train, saying sternly "no, no, no. Not this time. a-hahaha." before hopping onto the train on platform 10. Nice and empty. It was also a semi fast train, but heading elsewhere. I end up in New Southgate - someplace way north of ally pally. No train going the other way for 30 minutes.
ph0ka...
So, even though I have a travelcard and can therefore use any bus service I please, I decide to walk home. Hey - the timetable said it only takes 3 minutes between New Southgate and Alexandra Palace.. can't be that far at all!
Yeah. 20 minutes later, in the dark, with sore feet, I do the maths. 3 minutes away. By train. Whose average speed is about 50mph (on this line). Which means it would cover 50 miles in one hour, hence 50/60 miles in one minute. Which is just under a mile. So in three minutes it'll have covered about 2 miles.
I walk at about 3 miles per hour. I have to cover 2 miles....
Equals - I should've waited for the train.
