Early rise tomorrow!

Off to Madrid on the high speed train at 6.30am tomorrow morning to process my Egyptian visa for my next trip and course. Today was a day of frustrations with RENFE (the train company), whose system was down both online and then by phone. When we eventually got the tickets booked, the system wouldn't let us print them off. Bb had to go to the station to get them there. In the station the automatic machines weren't working where you can print off tickets. After a struggle with a real person at the ticket desk, who said it wasn't his job to print off tickets, he eventually agreed to do it. I didn't ask Bb what he'd said to him! About to pack now. I need to do a bit of work while in Madrid because of our recent partying and house guests - all worth it though.
