So much for the idea of a relaxing Sunday; unless driving back and forth around town is your idea of a good time!
This is how my day went:
- I left home at 8am (let’s call home ‘point 1’) – and took woman A to point 2
- Drove from point 2 to point 3 to pick up boy A
- Drove boy A to point 3 so he could do work experience
- Drove from point 3 back to point 2 to collect woman A
- Drove woman A back to point 1 where we collected boy B
- Drove boy B to work at point 4 where I had lunch at a nearby cafe with woman A
- Bought lunch for boy A and drove from point 4 to point 3 to give it to him
- Drove with woman A to point 5 (National Portrait Gallery) where we killed a few hours
- Drove back to point 4 to collect boy B
- Drove from point 4 to point 3 to collect boy A
- Drove from point 3 to point 6 to collect boy C
- Drove woman A and boys A,B and C to point 1 where they met boys D and E
- Drove boy A back to point 3
- Drove from point 3 to point 7 where I picked up some bookshelves
- Drove from point 7 back to point 1 to give shelves to boy D
- Finally I arrive back point 1 at 5:30pm only to discover that I need to go to the supermarket – point 8 – if I want any dinner
- Drove to point 8
- Drove back from point 8 to point 1
Fortunately, today is a public holiday, so I can have a day working in the home office and not contributing to the carbon footprint at all.
