The fire at Kings Cross caused me to have a 7 hour train journey into work (from Brough in East Yorkshire to Canary Wharf). This is a trip I usually do twice a week and it is supposed to take 3 hours. My head is filled with thoughts about how critical transport is to the running of the Games and how little leeway there is for contingency in an already overloaded system. It would have been a completely wasted day if it were not for technology – my Vodafone Data Card allowed me to get through some work. The 3G coverage is a bit sketchy, but overall an excellent bit of kit.
