Make me feel better by sharing your pain. I hate traveling for work but it's a major part my job. Kiev for a two week install. Taxi was ordered 1 hour earlier than needs meaning I got up at 03:45 rather than a more manageable 04:45.

I really hate this.

I work 6 days on 6 days off and have to fly to work, I justify it by telling myself I couldnt live where I do if I didnt

Paid £130 for a single night in a miserable Travelodge near Hounslow after my flight to Brussels was cancelled last night. Woman in restaurant just been over to bollock me for not carrying my empty cereal box to the other side of the room to put it in the bin.

Unfortunately nearly all hotels near Heathrow full due to BA data centre failure and those with rooms have figured out that passengers can claim £200 / night for their rooms and priced accordingly.

03.45? I didn't know the clock went that low.
Sent from my bed while Mrs Zip makes me a cuppa.

It takes less than 10 mins for me to travel to work. Hope that helps.

Could have got the train to Brussels. Similar cost maybe, 2hrs from St Pancras. You'd be there by now.

I run to work, but not today as I'm still in bed enjoying a bank holiday lie in.
