And back to work – absolutely hate going back after Christmas break.

Time off has given me the illusion of normal life … However, the first day is the worst, and with the logging on of my computer and the flood of emails, those funny, familiar shackles begin to fall into place.

The main task of the day was to get to them the quote requested by Transport for London for inclusion with Ken’s quote on the start of the Muswell Hill to Swiss Cottage bus route which will have its inaugural journey on Monday next. Hurrah!

I give TfL a very nice quote saying a ‘big thank you to Mayor Livingstone and to TfL’ and blow me, what happens? The press release appears the next day minus my quote. Sweet mystery of life!

Never mind – concentrate on getting letters out to all the school children via the Fitzjohns’ Avenue schools, local emails and letters to inform everyone it is starting and its starting times.
