So, over a month ago now – scary – I flew into the U.S. on a one-way ticket. That’s supposed to be very unnerving, but mostly it was just a crap flight and I was so glad to finally get off the plane. It wasn’t a good start, from the moment I got on the… Read more
Ever wondered what the best way to get from, say, my place, to, say, London, is? [Comma comma comma comma hwau] *ahem* Well, the logical thing would be to ask trusty old Google Maps.
