Haha, no :p Though I'm worried that they think I may just be lazy after having travelled back most of yesterday!

Their timing is all messed up now with the new routes; I even met a new postwoman (?) on Saturday.

Severe delays on 3 lines. If it doesn't pick up soon, I may just work from home today.

Made it to work a little late, but not bad considering the tube chaos...only to find that my office is COMPLETELY empty. My bosses obviously did not expect this, as we share an office with about 10 other people from other companies. They're both going straight to voicemail, so surely on the tube.

I only have a key to the front door of the building, can't get in to the office properly. Sitting in Costa near the office trying not to be annoyed. If anyone needs me I'll be in Costa watching Grimm, as I'm a bit angry at everyone for not showing up to work and neglecting to tell me.

Most of my team are either on scheduled holiday or working from home. I think there's one chap stuck on the tube, bless him. There's just no point trying today if you have home working arrangements in place.

No such luck for OH, he has to head in later.

Sorry to hear you're locked out, caitlinmorton. I can imagine how frustrating that must be after the epic journey in!
