My commute descended into hell this morning after some STOOPID utilities company really decided to put a spanner in the works and totally stuff up one of the busiest sections of road in west London.
Bus stops were closed and there were angry scenes where commuters, who couldn’t read the ‘bus stop closed’ sign, shook their fists at buses that weren’t stopping, but then, still continued to wait there. And, for some unknown reason, my bus decided to block the entire road for everyone, and caused an even bigger hold up, with horns honking, hands waving, fists shaking… and then, he drove into a tree!
It was bedlam!
Seriously, I couldn’t have made it up if I’d wanted to!
And the worst part?
This is going to go on for another 2 months!
*argggggghhhhhhhhhhh
Yesterday, while driving through the roadworks myself, four cars in front of me went through a red light. When our lights changed to green, we were faced with another four cars flying at us from the other direction who clearly couldn’t be bothered to wait at their red light.
The roadworks are so frustrating and the hold-ups are so big, that they are causing people to behave insanely irrationally – it really is an accident waiting to happen.
I can’t take it anymore, I need to complain to someone...
So if you’ll excuse me, I’m off to find them...

I got frustrated while reading that :P
Good thing I'm off to Sweden where I'll be skiing and signing with a lot of deaf and HOH friends all weekend! Woohoo! Except I don't ski, so I'll pretty much just be practicing the sign language... Just as well, I guess ;)
Have a great weekend!
