They're off!

. . . Finished work at lunch en lieu of Sunday and finally set off 3-30pm (following the traditional false start to make Margaret laugh)

Our park and drive hotel was in Hale, so we thought we'd blow half the holidays spending money in Carluccio's!! £7 a pint!!! It was very nice.

The mandantory parking cone photo was observed. . . and the 'I'm out of Notts 'reaction occurred' . . .

The extra photo is very arty until you remember it was taken one handed in the reflection on the shiney tiles in the loo . . .
