Since my last post, that was the end of the first PowerBook battery, and I wanted to save this one. There was a fairly brutal accident on the M6 northbound just past Keele Services (it would appear two passengers running away from a NatEx coach may have been hit by a passing truck, and one has allegedly been killed), with the result that traffic heading south was diverted, restricted, you name it. The driver of the coach has stopped for his 30mins tachograph break here anyway, and the traffic appears to have cleared both ways, although police presence is still more noticeable than usual. Anyway, we are about an hour late, so we should be at the temporary MK coach stop around 1940 - and there are still coaches to Cambridge at 1955 or 2055, so fairly easy. In the event that we run even later, C has offered to pick me up.

On those days when you only want to get back to the one you love...
