Warm and Dry

We travelled again today, and as usual not without mishaps. We travelled by Steam Packet and Virgin train.

The boat arrived slightly late, we then got caught up in traffic and as a result missed the train. The next train was cancelled and so it took us at least 2 hours more to arrive home.

On the plus side, on the train we were in a first class cabin marked as Standard, and we got to eat Chinese in Liverpool. And Arthur enjoy it!

Friday 13th is unlucky for some but generally not for me.

Today we travelled from the Isle of Man to Luton and unusually nothing much went wrong!! It was lovely to all travel together on holiday. I love true family holidays and this one is particularly special.

It is good to be back home. I went straight from the airport to my photography course. It is nice to be back in routine and even nicer to be back home.

We are flying back to Staines today. Arthur and I will be travelling with my parents. It will be the first time they fly together with Arthur. Cannot wait to get back home as I am really missing Owen.

Time to travel to Malta again. We are flying to London today after Nursery, and then flying to Malta tomorrow night. We are off to vote.

Arthur and I had to travel back to IOM. After we picked up the grandparents from Heathrow, we headed off to Gatwick. I have truely begun to hate Gatwick airport. They are the most useless airport around. The reason they are still 1 hand baggage allowance is because they are not coping. Now if they were not so silly that they still insist on removing peoples shoes, belts, jackets, laptops from laptop bags, put liquid items into transparent bags? etc etc. They even make you remove an infants shoes! Honestly how much could you hide in a toddlers pair of shoes?

If I had a choice, I simply would use another airport but living in IOM, it complicates matters. C’est la vie!
