ХРЮ!

Train, followed by two planes with one-hour break in between. And what do you think was the only part of the journey that went wrong? The bus from Heathrow to Oxford! Due to a fire, they cancelled their service to the central coach station for two hours and didn't tell anyone. Typical?..

On the bright side, the wait resulted in a very long and orderly queue any true Englishman would have been proud of :)
