Whilst on my way to work this morning, I saw a big lorry pulling up the road. It reminded me of how I used to travel home from University.
You see I went to college, 4 hours from home, and as a student I was always skint.
So rather than taking a bus or train, I used to head down to a town nearby, stay over at a lorry drivers house (who my dad knew!). At 3 in the morning, we would wake up and hit the road. Arriving safely, time after time, at my dad's place of work for the delivery of goods, he had been transporting.
It was very effective and cheap. So it met all the criteria of a student.
This memory, just made me think of all the ways that I have travelled.
Boat, ferry, canoe, train, tram, car, bike, bus, minibus, motorbike...........and the list goes on.
However the one that made me chuckle today was the lorry.
The things I did to avoid spending money were quite impressive!
What is the weirdest way you have travelled??
I am sure there are much weirder than a lorry. So do tell...........
