Closer to home
Sally's visit to see her Father along with her sister yesterday finished up being a bit of a trial having been stationary on the M1 due to an accident. Taking 4 hours to get back she arrived home less than amused and tired out.
My turn today, Friday not being the best day to take to the roads! I have arranged to have lunch with Number 1 Daughter (the elder) who lives near Banbury. When i had a "real job" it was a regular trip for me down to our head office in the centre of the town. 7 hours was my record for going down there after getting stuck on the M42. I'm hoping not to repeat that today - - -
Enjoy the day
