Dawn drove to Tring leaving me at home. However, an hour after leaving home, I got a phone call from her to inform me she had got a flat tire. Concerned that Dawn would not enjoy her special day, I called her a taxi and told her to enjoy her day at the spa and I would sort things out.
What that meant was walking to Herford North station, catching a train to Finsbury Park, getting a tube to Euston station, getting a train from there to Berkhampstead, and then walking a couple of miles to the car. I'm not complaining. I watched for the Green Flag guy, got the tire replaced at Kwik-Fit, and met Dawn at Champneys after a coffee at Starbucks in Tring. Dawn then informed me that she had spent a pound or two on extra goodies. This on top of the £20 for train fare and the cost of a new tire. Oh well, it could have been worse.
