How do people manage to screw up the really, really simple stuff? Free practice starts at 9 today, so the press office opens at 8 to allow us all to get set up. Unfortunately, the VIP car park - which the press office gave us passes for - opens at 10.
I'm normally pretty good at blagging my way past mindless bureaucracy, but at 8.45 I'm in McDonalds having had breakfast (but still waiting for my coffee to get cold enough to drink) wondering a) what I'm going to do for the next hour and a half b) why I couldn't have stayed in bed for another couple of hours and c) whether I brought my monopod. At least the last is easily answered - even if I don't quite have enough time to go home for it if I have forgotten it.
Still, at least this blog has wasted 5 minutes...
