Yesterday afternoon we embarked on a mad afternoon to London, our friend Dave kind drove and got tickets for a recording of Radio 4s Just a Minute. So after a morning at work we drove up to London, parked up in a side street and got the tube into Oxford Circus to Broadcasting House.
It seemed surreal that in the morning we were at work, and then a few hours later standing on the pavement in London queueing to get into the home of BBC Radio. Two shows were recorded featuring Paul Merton, Clement Freud, Josie Lawrence and Jack Dee. It was very very funny and I can't wait to hear how they edit it all down into two half hour shows.
We then went for a bot of a wander to soak up some of London, and then set off home. Unfortunately we got stuck in a nightmare traffic jam on the M4, a serious accident closed it for at least 45 minutes and people (we men) resorted to getting out their cars and trying to ascertain what had happened up front!
Eventually we got home just after 2am, and I have been just a little tired at work today!
A great day out though, thanks to Dave for driving us all the way there and back - despite the late night I can't wait to do it again soon!
