No, you're still bleating about nothing. If it's that big of a deal to be out of the office, why are you going on about transport?
I have to get me and a crew of two plus a big pile of television equipment from Essex to Manchester tomrrow, a fact of which I was informed only about four hours ago - and I had to find the crew. If a hopelessly uninformed civvy like me can organise that, you'd have thought you could drum up a run from Lincoln to Birmingham without too much trouble.
I mean c'mon. Is there some terrifyingly complicated administrative reason you can't just go there?
(If there is, of course, then fair enough - no, wait, not fair enough - it'll just shift the focus of my ire...)
