Failing to leave for a half-day Friday ...... led to me missing the Southall Rail Crash (19/09/1997). If I'd left my Reading office when I'd hoped to, I'd have been on that train. As it was, I heard about it in the office, and headed off to catch the slow train.
(Never mind that I usually sat in coach A, at the back of the train to London, one of the coaches that didn't even come off the track: I'm still telling that story today. 8)
