It’s a mark of how bad the London transport system is for the soul that I was grinning especially inanely this evening when I managed to get a comfortable seat on a warm train that didn’t appear to be running late. It felt like Christmas, and in many ways it was. These hallowed occasions happen about as frequently - perhaps during Boris’s brief time on earth he might deign to have a brief think about where it all went wrong.

Another exciting point in my day: I renewed my library books on my phone. How cool is that?

Not very, but I was excited nonetheless. Initially quite miffed for having forgotten to go the library in the first place (I’ll miss Autocar magazine this week…sniff) I had a go at getting into their online system and hark! They even give you some recommendations for your next visit based on books you’ve taken out already. Today was the deadline for taking the books back, so I was quite fearful of a little punitary surprise, but the cut-off point was 11.59. Bless those little bookish-types at Kensington and Chelsea, they’ve made a young man proud.
