So today I didn't get up to too much. Oh yeah I did faint in Queen Street station and get carted off in a wheel chair. But other than that, it was a quiet one.

So it has been a tad windy today. By a tad windy I mean winds up to 100mph in certain parts of Scotland. As a result there have been lots of trees down and debris flying about and therefore every single train was cancelled from Queen Street station.

There were no replacement buses and taxi queues were a million miles long. In the end mum had to come rescue me. It took over 2 hours to do the round trip, and it should have taken half of that. I got home close to 8pm. On the upside I got a free cup of tea at the train station.

This morning tragedy struck! I forgot to pick up my MP3 player from its charger. That meant I had no tunes for driving to the station. No tunes means I am not a happy bunny.

It's cool though, I managed to get a really annoying song stuck in my head all day (which currently escapes me) so by the time I was heading home I was so sick of it circling my head that I was quite happy to drive home in silence.

Ended up with a migraine last night and had an early night. As a result I had to get up very early to get my clothes in the dryer and showered for work. I finally hit the land of the living at 6.35am.

Unfortunately my migraine made a return on my drive to the train station and I had to just turn round and come home again. Luckily that meant I got to go back to bed, unluckily it felt like a goblin was trying to smash its way out of my skull.

I was held up in traffic leaving the train station tonight (after a day I would very happily forget). As I edged round the road I found not 1, but 2 RAC vans helping some melon with a broken down motorbike. I have never seen two roadside assistance vans helping one car, why does Mr Motorbike get special treatment?

It was very very foggy this morning. I took this photo as Dad and I zoomed past the canal on our way to the train station. On a clear day you should be able to see the canal, the woods running alongside the path and the hills rolling up behind and generally just be able to see quite a distance. Not today.

I quite like fog though, except in the dark. Its like its hiding things like a cheeky little child.

NOT MORE SNOW!!!! This was the carpark at the train station this morning. Thankfully it didnt hang about, however the weather is now freezing rain and howling wind.... I think i prefer the snow.

Spotted this advert in Queen Street train station this morning and decided it looked tasty enough to buy.

So I got one from the garage on the way to work and had it after lunch. It was alright. However Caramel eggs and Wispa Caramel are better, in my opinion.

This morning I was the only person IN THE WORLD going to work. That may be a slight exaggeration but I took this photo at 7:55am while waiting on my (late) train. The 2 platforms were empty. Normally they are packed with people. Particularly when the train is late.

Today is a Scottish bank holiday, however because the company I work for has a head office in England we are classed as an English company and are, therefore, forced to work on Scottish holidays :(

Also note the clumps of snow around the lamposts... It hasn't snowed in WEEKS but it just wont go away!
