They’re Off!
I was beginning to wonder if we would ever get away but, having cancelled the world tour, I managed to get away this morning for a 90 day tour of the Balkans.
We left at 07:30 and by 09:30 we had travelled just 9 miles! Having joined the M40 in Oxfordshire, there was an accident causing the complete closure of the Southbound carriageway. We missed the mid-day ferry we had booked to Dunkirk and had to catch the following one some two hours later. The drive across Belgium was good, but we were unable to make up the time and so were late arriving in the Waterloo area, where a hotel I had booked was located. I got us hopelessly lost (which is why I rarely book hotels in advance), but managed to purlion two passing police officers and got an official escort to the hotel. That's style.
I have been told, that this weekend, there is going to be a re-enactment...
