Winterlude


I'm off to Devon for a couple of days, taking the girls to see their grandma, who will turn 90 on Christmas Eve, and hopefully their grandad, who's just been transferred to a care home, in a not entirely trauma-free fashion. It won't be easy - it even looks like we'll be driving into filthy weather.

Should be back Friday, though probably a little late for all the usual mallarkey here x

  1. All the best to the parents Davy. I hope you have a good time. Drive safe.
    I will be driving home from Manchester this afternoon and it's not looking any better going north.

    Much love, respect, windscreen washer liquid, and marshmallows.

  10. Thanks - a good run back, avoiding the traffic, ahead of the floods and singing along to Bing on the radio. Thanks for your good wishes folks - deep breath Lee. And Merry Christmas Millie - don't be a stranger x
