Home again

And with the in-laws' delivery done, it feels like Christmas is starting. In fact I've just realised that Christmas is two weeks tomorrow. Crumbs! That is rather soon.

Thank heavens for Amazon and ebay.

On the way home Husband was grumbling that he was feeling tired: he hadn't slept well the night before. Then he realised that over the course of the last six nights he has slept in five different beds. That can't be good.

Still the journey home was fine - unlike the trip to Derby. It normally takes just under three hours; yesterday it took five and a half.

As we joined the motorway just outside Swansea, we found we were joining a traffic jam. It took us two hours to get to the next junction, where we could come off, turn round, drive back to where we started and take a different route. And there was only a small traffic jam on that one.

Never mind, done now.

A fix of West Wing is called for I believe.

Gosh, Liz, hubby must be exhausted! There is nothing so restful as sleeping in your own bed, as I discovered when mine arrived in Sicily after 6 weeks at sea! No "West Wing" on TV here at the moment so I envy you!

Pleased your Derby trip has ended safely. How frustrating to be held up for so long so soon after the start of your journey.

Never watched 'West Wing'. I assume you would recommend it.
