Home Again

The last few hours in France were spent on the motorway before we entered the Chunnel and crossed in a trice to emerge on an M20 being lashed by heavy rain. Welcome home!!!

As we pushed our way through the rain and spray on a series of noisy motorways made of concrete and filled with rushing traffic we missed the carefree motoring of Spain. But as we headed West the clouds cleared and we travelled the last miles of our journey on a familiar A303 in some sunshine even if the wind was bitter.

Into the village and onto our drive to discover some kind person had placed a welcome home balloon on our gate - perhaps they will have us back? As we tour the house and garden we find everything in good order and nothing seems to have suffered too much in our absence thanks to those who have kept an eye on things. Spring is still sprung in the garden and although we have missed the daffodils and the best of the hellebores we still have much to enjoy.

Resisting the urge to turn round and start again we spend an evening wondering what we will do with all the space and agree that the trip was a great success. Whilst we missed family and friends we expect to take another one before too long.

We hope our followers have enjoyed reading about our journey and we hope it will remind us of what and where and when.
