Saturday 22nd August 2020

Again we decided to leave early to try and avoid the masses of traffic. So many people having staycations means the roads are a nightmare. Rhys was taking a diversion on the way home to have the screen fitted in his taxi. Of course it was longer and they hit a lot of traffic. We were very lucky and had a good journey watching queue after queue on the opposite side of the road heading to the west country. The last chance for many people to have a break before the kids return to school.

Ellie still didn’t like it in the back of the car and at one point tried to climb over on to the seat!

Eventually Rhys, Mal and Ollie arrived, we sorted out the cars and then drove home. The main thing was Ollie, Oscar and Josie enjoyed the holiday, I was not so pleased with parts of it, mainly the lack of cleanliness and care (Covid) but then no one seems to know what they are doing anyway!

Sandwich did not have the amount of rain we had, consequently my hanging baskets and much of my garden looked quite sad, but we do have a lot of tomatoes in my pots.

It was a long day, even longer for Lou and Rhys who both had to drive. We just unpacked our case, sorted some things and had a very easy dinner!

Thought for the Day – “You will never have this day again so make it count.”
