Why didn’t I use Uber in Chicago…

Uber Surge Pricing

There's been a lot of buzz, criticism and everything else about Uber. However, it's not a service I've tried myself. The reason? I don't live near enough to take advantage of a Uber service (and my trips to London are becoming rarer and rarer). So whilst in Chicago yesterday, I was walking around in a daze (trust me...

Good morning from Wonderful Digbeth Coach station in the south side of Birmingham, where I've had zero sleep, minimal time to pack and I'm not feeling 100% with it. Although that could be due to the late taxi, but I'm not ruling anything out at this time of day. Once again, I'm preparing to traverse the pond... From a slightly different route than usual.
