I have to be somewhere by 8, and may be there for the whole day.
The most convenient train is at 6.30 (three hours away).
I am not in the slightest bit tired. Therefore, sleep is not a practical option.

Oh yes.
I'm getting trained to potter around on little electric trucks without wrecking them.

I can never tell when you're sarcastic or not.
but it still sounds like fun. Just don't let the plug fall from the socket.

I'm going to be driving them round a building that measures about 1/2 mile x 500 yards x six storeys.
If they ran from the mains, the extension leads would be a bit on the long and downright dangerous side.

Clearly I need to work on making my sarcasm more obvious.

Aye, and I need to work on being less of an MoT-ish boring pedant.

I'm going to get gurned at for asking...
