Well, that kinda sucks

gemfyreMatt dropped me in town early because he started work earlier than me. I killed the time by wandering around Queens Park then made it all the way to Herrison Island - I'd never been there before. Saw quite a few birdies including a common sandpiper.
Then I made my way back to the WACA by 20 to 6, when I was meant to start work. I get there, and there is no-one in the muster area. I wait around for about 15 minutes. Not a soul. Hrm. I shall have to call Skilled about this tomorrow, that shift and the pay would have been much appreciated. I was told last nights shift would not be happening but got no news about tonight.
So, seeing as I didn't want to sit around the WACA for 3 hours waiting for Matt to pick me up, I figured I'd get home via train and bus. I go to the train station and ask at info the best way to get to near my place. Seems a train to Bassendeen then the 62 to Amazon Drv is the way to go, no worries. I get to Bassendean and wait for my bus, which by the timetable was meant to come by at 7:05. 7:05 comes and goes, no bus. I check the timetable. Ah, the 47 arrives then, there are no more 62s tonight and the 47 goes nowhere near where I need to be. I don't mind walking a bit sure, but I don't really like doing it at night.
So I ended up calling Gill. She was out but luckily nearby so she came and picked me up and dropped me home. Useful living near my brother and sister-in-law. :)
So really, the most annoying thing is missing out on that pay. Gah.
