@kdfrawg Exactly why I chose the sleeper bus — far less time wasted. I didn't sleep as well as I would've liked, but once at my cousin's I had a 2-hour nap, and that's proven to be plenty.

Someone has a portable AM radio on behind me (on the train).

Awful buzzing…

@kdfrawg 7 hours by sleeper bus to London. 5 hours by daytime train.

@skematica I don't hate Edinburgh, mainly because I was lucky enough to get one of the newest apartments in the city. I imagine that, whichever city I lived in, I'd be commuting regularly for events.

@kdfrawg Thanks! Discovered that the neck pillow is great, but I need to invest in a full inflatable pillow if I'm going to do this trip often…

@skematica Yep.

Where exactly are you? I have a full year here and don't intend to just go to London every time!

The countryside is bearable, for a short period of time. I spent a weekend in a friend's house in Bas Normandie last year — the chess, piano (when he played it, at any rate), and whisky made it quite enjoyable.

London for the weekend.

@skematica Thanks :) Edinburgh officially. Was in Glasgow last week. Seems like only yesterday…

Google Cal beats iOS Cal, if only because events on Google can start and end in different time zones.
