St Pancras

Going back up to Sheffield from St Pancras station, figured after all the times I've been through this station it was about time I took a photo of it! So here you go :)

Got up earlyish to go to the supermarket to buy French food supplies! Was very restrained, am already regretting it. Then L and I faffed around a bit packing and stuff and I ended up leaving the house incredibly late, so got unbelievably stressed that I was going to miss my train. L came with me to gare du Nord and we got a taxi from St Lazare to GdN because I was so panicky. Ended up arriving before I'd even planned to get there if I'd left on time. Typical. Journey was fine but I was still crazy stressed so didn't really relax until I was on the train back to Shef - 1st class ticket which was pretty excellent!

Had more saga at St Pancras because I'd cancelled my bank account on Saturday (which was a saga in itself - I owed the bank 34cents which they would only let me pay by cheque, so I had to go back to the house, get Lucie to write me out a cheque for forty centimes and go back to the bank!) ... which meant I hadn't got that card - the card I'd bought the tickets with - anymore. Typical! Had to ring the rail line but there was a very nice man on the other end who sorted it out. Still, close call.

E came and met me from the station and we spent the rest of the evening being very tired, but it was very nice to see him again :)
