The trip to France was on MV Pont Aven, the big one, with shops. I only mention the shops in passing as this trip I only made one very small purchase - am I sickening for something?! The journey to Plymouth hadn't been as bad as was expected but the 25 minute wait to drive through the Customs Shed was a bit much especially as they didn't appear to stop anyone - too cold maybe! So once on board it was straight for the restaurant and dinner. No wine allowed as I have new pain relief tablets, that's going to be annoying in the extreme. The crossing was smooth and arrival prompt as always. The journey on from Roscoff to No.2 home should take about an hour and forty minutes but the snow got deeper and as the roads were not gritted it took nearer to three hours.
There is always a lovely sense of anticipation as the house comes into view. It's a place to relax without the burden of worrisome housework/gardening/maintenance etc. It's the perfect house really, no garden, no carpets and therefore little dust and very little clutter. The fire is lit and the place is beginning to feel warm,while I'm feeling the heat from the laptop! Now for a quiet few days before the trek home.
