After two weeks . . . .

Hello! Back home after more than two weeks without internet access - which proves I can stop whenever I like and am thus not addicted to blip!

You would have thought a Subaru Estate was a big enough car to take hubby and I, one dog and one cat to Newcastle and back. Well, it was on the way down, but after a few trips round the shops, including Ikea, we were packed like sardines for the return journey!

Ollie and Dotty don't do kennels, so they were left with A's sister while we went off to explore Eire for a week.

Ireland was wonderful - beautiful views and scenery, ever such friendly people, superb food and lots of rivers and loughs. A really lovely break, and driving about 200 miles a day we certainly saw alot of countryside. Started off in Cork, where himself had a meeting, and then went up the west side and down the middle! Will back blip a few shots when I get turned round!
