Good morning all from a dry (so far!) Crewe.
Travelling on the motorways on Christmas Day is highly recommended! Only two lorries encountered throughout the journey! Despite squally showers in the SW, we covered the distance in four hours, including a fruitless stop at Gloucester Services, where no facilities were available, followed by a very welcome coffee stop at Strensham.
It felt quite unreal, once we'd arrived, to imagine we'd undertaken the trip but wonderful to be with the family. DGS2 (11) said it made Christmas Day for him and DGD delighted with her welcome. DD2 said it made all the preparation of the delicous lunch worthwhile, having visitors arrive in time to share it.
It's lovely to read of the enjoyment of many of you yesterday and I'm sorry for those for whom plans had to be cancelled. Today, my DS and DGS3 will join us plus the inlaws,for which we shall all take LFT's.
Have a relaxing and enjoyable Boxing Day, whate'er betides. ?☃️?
