If you have been made uncomfortable by the careless driving that has become commonplace in our community, I believe it is time to step up and say something!
SO... we're expecting a wet, snowy, slippery, slushy drive home.
BUT it's still just clouds and no precipitation around here for now.
So I can't work my magic and subtly nudge my managers to let us out a little early to help us avoid the long, messy drive home.
Drive home should be fun...

Running twenty minutes late today, as the train was late arriving from the preceding journey: knock on effect.
And then it had to be cleaned too, standing in Bremen rather than on the move, as rather too many people from the previous journey were incapable of removing their breakfast remains.
Aufbruch auf Rädern, Verlust struktureller Integritäten, Schimpfworte, Fußmarsch. Ringen mit Zeit, Erfordernissen, Möglichkeiten. Grauer Himmel, durchdringender Wind, keine Eigenwahrnehmung außer der Spiegelung in den Blicken von Handwerkern, die ihren parkenden Transporter ausladen und deren Aufmerksamkeit man viel zu lang bindet. Bürokeller, neben den Parkbuchten. Steckengeblieben in unbequemen Überlegungen über einfache, aber langfristig schlechte Gegebenheiten - und die Privilegiertheit von Alternativ-Ansätzen, die irgendwie immer in Do-It-Yourself hängenbleiben. Zu wenig Koffein.
The starting point of my new morning commute. Not going to complain

Feeling a bit wonky this afternoon had to buy a new saddle at lunchtime to replace the SLR that knackered me during the ride in this morning. I had completely forgotten how badly it treated me last time I rode it. I couldn’t even face riding the 6km back from the station this afternoon, it was that grim.

Not a happy bunny this morning. The app tells me my bus is there and on time, but the display at the bus stop tells a different story. An invisible bus is underway, on time, according to the app.
The same with the next bus. I hurry to the next tram stop, 1 km away, missing the tram by one minute. Invisible buses are still running.
Arrive at the station 05.35, and see the 05.45 isn't running today. Next train 06.17.
Coffee and a bretzel. Temperature at -1°C.

Checking all my planned trips for the rest of the month, as the Bremen to Hannover route is shutting down completely for ICE and IC trains, partially for RE. Repairs to the track, after what appears to be a small landslide.
Sadly my journey to work is not effected.
Spring has continued to swing between mild, chilly, snowy, sunny, with generous helpings of ice (nothing like down east!) and mud. More #snow on the weekend and last night (tonight again?) sunny at the moment, and a big warm-up this weekend.Pics from #Saturday #commute
