day27 | campaign | helpbuildtheark.com - trains let me down on boxing day and hope nottingham

so plans all over the place today. no hope nottingham. no soup kitchen
quest like i wanted to do for the last three years ;( yesterday (boxing day) was a bit of a nightmare. i was expecting to go out
on the train to collect my daughter for the day to celebrate a christmas
with her. due to the lack of trains and general rail station weirdness it
means i could not get over to her. it sent me on a bit of a downer (which
seems to trigger more at christmas!) but i'm slowly managing to pull myself
out of it today. it did remind me about transport and infrastructure however. painfully so. last time i drove was about a year ago. i do have a car but it has
probably been pulled away for scrap now. i simply do not have the money to
keep a car on the road let alone put fuel into it. it makes me quite sad
that i cannot see my daughter regularly. it was always a balancing act when
i lived there - no work vs see my daughter regular with nothing to give her
or entertain as such. at least her we have snippits of better times. i feel for all those single people that are alone at christmas. please keep
mentally secure and safe and warm. annoyed that i never made it to the
soup kitchens to help out today but it was a choice between seeing my
daughter today or wednesday and that would simply have been too long.
