Well it is monday morning and not for the first time in the last week it has taken me over 1 hour and a half to get in to work. Because I work in central london i always take public transport but todays journey was just an absolute nightmare.

I woke up, looked out the window - major traffic on roads so decided to get the train. just missed the train so decided to get the 419 bus to hammersmith. waited 15 mins for the bus then major roadworks on the route sent the bus on the most stupid journey ever taking half an hour to do a journey that normally takes 5 minutes. Added to this, there was traffic at every turn. Then, 3 schoolkids got on and proceeded to shout, scream and 'MC' all the way. Soon, the young guy behind me (about 30) lost his rag and started shouting at them. ''Why don't you shut the f*ck up", "Youre screaming like a bunch of girls", "Youve got no respect". More sarcastic comments followed from the kids and the man behind me then climbed over the back of his seat in a fit of rage "Im gonna smack 'em" and started laying into one of them. At this point I get up and try to break it up. They break up and even then these kids continue to make sarcastic comments! I just do not know what you are supposed to do in these situations. Thankfully the bus got a clear route into hammersmith soon after that. Not the best way to kick off a monday morning.

As for trading, I managed to make another 1% last night trading on the Inverness Rangers game and later I am going to a betfair trading seminar at betfair towers. Dont know what it will be like but its free so I'll go along then report my findings.

Persoannlly I would have helped him eject the kids from the vehicle.

Probably should have done. though these kids wouldnt have gone easily, and everyone else just wanted to get to work.

Fair enough Joe, but these kids drive me nuts. Zero Tolerance. I will blog about it about one day
