Well i got in ok, straight to where i needed to go. But those little oneway side streets hit my bearings out, I ended up getting onto the M5 by driving past the Longbridge factory.

**** me travelling to brum is a nightmare!!!

Takes me just under 1hr to get to work (40miles, including going from Cheltenham M5 junction to other side of cheltenham), took 1.5hrs to get to where my course was (next door to Toys R Ghey), thats about 18miles!

Surfice to say I missed the coffee and introductions
