Going home
My friend is going to drive me to Luxembourg Station at 1215 to catch the 13:11 train to Brussels. I have a carry-on sized wheelie case from which I plan to hang my bigger grab bag full of (now mostly dirty) clothes. My heavy camera outfit (complete with tripod) is in a backpack and I have a laptop bag to hang on my shoulder.
I shall be quite the beast of burden today, but goodness knows this trip has taught me how much I need the exercise. My post-Wexit self-neglect did a lot of damage.
In Brussels I have an hour and twenty-nine minutes to transfer my burdens to the 15:27 Eurostar to London. I am required to be there sixty minutes before “check-in” (how pretentious – it’s a choo-choo train, FFS) so that gives me an ample half-hour for haulage.
I shall then have a more or less relaxing (I’m in the cheap seats) trip of just two hours and four minutes to St Pancras for 19:00 (thanks to the time difference) and an Uber home to Chiswick. I should be home by about 20:00, deo volenti.
Fingers crossed that I finish the trip at my target percentage of just 18.75% “rescue days”. At least, if one of the trains breaks down, I won’t have to negotiate a recovery truck with some dodgy local!
I am no fan of public transport of any kind and rather dread the prospect of a day in the hands of unionised and probably Communist public employees, but it’s nice sometimes to be irresponsible. Let’s hope the train drivers don’t feel the same way.
