So my smug "I'm not getting flooded" post earlier has back fired.
I've been out getting sandbags and sorting out all my stuff upstairs. If I learnt one thing, its that people are still idiots. People taking like 20 sandbags each for a terraced house in oxford. Not sure they understand what they're doing. Panicy fucks. do you panic, or keep a clear head?

Alt. What's your favourite weather based emergency?

Alt: Twenty pints of milk and an entire bakery's worth of bread.

A house I used to live in got flooded about four years ago. That was a lucky escape.

I tried to solve it by not living anywhere near a river.
So far it's worked.

I'd like to think I'm calm
in fact I am probably too laid back. However in a more long term stressful situation I do let things build up, go crazy for a bit then chill out again. Also, if things get serious, I set silly. That's why there's a prize this week at work of a muffin for whomever gets an inspector in their lesson first

Slough could use a fucking good flooding.
The inhabitants would get a bath, at least. Sometimes I feel like those people that live amongst chimps for a year, or whatever.

I tend to be calm during a crisis and then panic afterwards.

panic afterwards?
Seems a little daft.

I just found out something stupid about train tickets.
Milton keynes to Euston is £14 return.
Euston to Milton Keynes is £18.50 return.

You can buy either and collect them from which ever station you like. So you just have to buy the Mk-euston ticket collect it at euston and then use the tickets the wrong way round to save £4... stupid.

It's quite common.
It used to cost more to get from Newcastle to my local station than it did from my local station to Newcastle.

Serves you right for living on the Thames.
I've just flooded my top with alcohol.

Is it wrong that I've started drinking already? Perhaps you think I need some kind of 'intervention'.
