We packed as we were going to Bournemouth for a “Turkey and Tinsel”. We dropped Ellie off for her holiday with Rhys and co and then Rhys drove us to the coach park in Herne Bay. The coach was waiting. We had Gareth as our driver, we had him take us to the Isle of Wight and he really is nice. He played early 60’s music throughout the whole journey (for all us oldies!)

It seemed all the pick ups were early which meant we arrived at the hotel about 4.30 with tea and mince pies waiting for us. This officially was “Christmas Eve”.

We had a huge room and so unpacked and then went down for a drink and dinner. The hotel has an offer on during our stay, 2 for 1 drinks from 6pm – 9pm. So, a gin and tonic and whiskey and ginger for £5.50! There was also a singer, who was good and got us all up dancing.

A little too much dancing and drinking maybe!
