Yes it's still raining here in Wales.
I got on the bus earlier today which is a novelty for me. I've been a train getter for the last few years and before that I did used to use the bus for years. But since passing my driving test 2 years ago (this month) I have used public transport a lot less.
I parked the car up to get the train. The train wasn't expected for 25 minutes. So I walked to the bus stop about 7 minutes down the road. The bus wasn't due for 10 minutes - but hey I'd saved eight minutes or so! A few buses passed me and I asked them whether they were going to the Industrial Estate, as you do as if you're a lost tourist in London or some other exotic city..
I buy a ticket on the bus. This tiny scrap of paper holds the date (helpful), cost (expensive) etc etc and then on the back tells me how I can 'save time buying a megasaver online' which got me thinking.
Well it's all about saving a minute here and there when your life is chaos. We're so conditioned by marketing it is so very clever. Realistically, the only way you can save time is to be organised and a good planner. I am neither unfortunately.
