The new Mincemobile

[Dazzler]

Mince just gave me a call as he was passing Coventry, unfortunately i didn't have the mobile on me
Phoned back and had a brief chat before one of our phones gave in
I guess he's past the spaghetti junction by now and heading towards Stafford

Shame I didn't think of it, or know of his itinerary, could have met him for a coffee on the way through.

Surely this should have been an earhole! earhole! rather than an eyeball! eyeball! though?

We were both on a similar stretch of the M6 at the same time, more of a binocular, binocular

I texted him and says he be home about 2130hrs.

Made it for 2200, even without stopping (or actually sticking to the speed limit for that matter) sat nav was still over ambitious with the arrival time.

Shame I didn't think of it, or know of his itinerary, could have met him for a coffee on the way through.

I wish I had known what was happening too, a roughly thrown together plan involved a bus at 2200 on Fri, walk to tube, tube to tower, walk to fenchurch st, train to upminster, estima pickup to south ockendon. I knew where I was going but not really when I was going there and not entirely sure I was heading the right way most of the time

From there the only thing I could say for sure is that I would be heading North and most likely on the m6
Since my phone had decided that it's going to ignore 4 bars of signal and declare there was no service what there was of my vague plan ended up in the air.

Next time I'm down south on a daytrip I'll try and organise myself sooner (and better too)

So pretty much a normal trip then John.

Yep as ever, the only time Sat nav has was less accurate than me

Glad to hear you have transport again...  but the way it's goning with the Mince clan... you'll need both .. maybe make a bendy estima that has 8 seats at front ant luggage space at rear..
