Automatic Pilot

When was the last time you had one of those automatic pilot episodes?

 

I had one today. This afternoon i left work, it wasn’t even my normal office, and got out on to Tottenham Court Road. From there things go a bit hazy. I remember wandering along, bumbling into Warren Street tube station and heading down the escalators and getting on to a train.

 

The next thing I know, I have travelled along on the tube, got off the train, come up escalators and appeared out blinking in to the afternoon sunshine. Nothing wrong with that you might think. However the plan was that I was going to head to Victoria and get a train direct to Crawley. Only there I was stood outside Euston station.

 

So, not only had I gone the wrong way, but I’d got off a stop earlier than I should have done if I was thinking of getting the train from St Pancras to Three Bridges.

 

I couldn’t find any traces of blood, so I will assume that I didn’t stab anyone whilst I was in my fugue state.

 

At least it was a nice sunny day for a walk down Euston Road.
