Wet wet wet

First time at Euston this year, and first time since they finished that escalator refurbishment. You know what? After all those months of effort, it looks EXACTLY THE SAME as it did before. Presumably it has all new gubbins underneath but the moving bits look just as scabby and the handrails just as worn and tatty. Glad we spent all that money on it.

It was pissing down when I emerged from Westminster tube too. Stupidly I'd seen the forecast but forgotten to bring my brolly. Maybe there'd be a handy taxi? No such luck. It was just shy of 9 o'clock and they were all full. I walked. I got drenched. I sat in the meeting steaming quietly to myself. Both physically and figuratively (it was an annoying and frustrating meeting).
