1639 - Late train to London

At the last minute, I've arranged to go
To London tonight on the Virgin train
To Euston, staying at the Thistle, so
Getting to the meeting won't be a strain
Tomorrow, seeing as it starts at ten
That's early if you live in Manchester
And I'm still tired out from Monday's drive down
There and back. At least now I have a fair
Chance of a good night's sleep, breakfast at the
Hotel, then all fresh, I can walk quite slow
To the meeting, ready to use my brain
Surprisingly or not, it is cheaper
To stay in a hotel than it is to
Go and return the same day. It's insane!
