Peckham; a district in south London, England, located in the London Borough of Southwark.

Not quite sure how I have forgotten to post about this little episode.

It was the night of my work Christmas party (Thursday night.... which I have been informed is the new Friday).
We were at ONEFORONE on Park Lane with free flowing alcohol - As long as you managed to nab the free drinks 'tokens' from HR - which by chance looked like Ecstasy Pills and were residing in see through baggies. But rest assured they were most definitely plastic.

ANYwhooo.... by the end of the night I was absolutely Bungaloed!! (Are Michael Macintyre references still allowed?! Probably not...) However, KNOWING the issues I seem to have travelling home from nights out I had planned my journey to.the.minute. Or so I thought.

THE PLAN
Begin at Marble Arch - Night Bus to Vauxhall RAIL station - Train to Surbiton Rail station - £5 Taxi to my house - Open front door and go to bed - (get up for work in the morning having had actual sleep)

THE REALITY
Begin at Marble arch - Night bus PAST Vauxhall BUS station - Stay on night bus and wait for it to get to Vauxhall RAIL station - Stay on for about 25 minutes and realise I am well and truly past Vauxhall - Decide to get off bus into freezing rain - Wander around for a bit in the rain - CRY (But maybe it was rain..) - Realise I am in PECKHAM (WHERE is Peckham?!?) - Try ringing brothers to come pick me up (NO CHANCE) - Decide to take bus back on myself so stand at bus stop with no shelter for 45 minutes in RAIN - FINALLY reach Vauxhall Bus/Rail station (Realise this is the same place.... hang head in shame) - Realise there are no trains to take me home at this ungodly hour - RUN for night bus to Kingston - Get a taxi from Kingston to home - CRAWL into bed at about 4.30am - Fall asleep at around 5.30am - Get up for work at 6.30am - DIE.IN.WORK (and trip up in the office... ALOT).
