Mileage: 249,455

The above is not a mistake; I really did manage to accumulate an extra 250 miles in one working day today. That's because I went to Birmingham in the evening to see a pretty decent football match: Villa playing out a 1-1 draw with a talented CSKA Moscow side. I returned home reasonably happy but shattered.

I've just worked out that I spent more time in the car than in the office today (although that wouldn't have been the case if I hadn't left work early and subsequently hit traffic) - what a sad thought! I definitely don't think I'm cut out to ever have a driving job, although maybe that comment is somewhat influenced right now by all of the middle lane drivers that seemed to be out in force today. I think I'll be happy to take the train to work tomorrow (MOT day!).
