Travelling south.

 Today we have made our annual excursion to  visit the southern branch of the family, to celebrate the birthday of Granddaughter Number Three. The year she was born I went and spent a couple of weeks at their house when my son went back to work. Then every year I have been there for her birthday, apart from the year of Covid lockdown.  For the last few years my daughter has driven us down with the smallest grandchildren as they and Granddaughter Number Three have seriously bonded. 


The original plan was to drive Phil to chess club, as my daughter does every Thursday, and then set off for southern parts. Then last night Phil volunteered to take a taxi to chess club, allowing us to set off in the early afternoon. We might have set off in the morning but none of us had packed anything or organised anything. 


And here we are in southern parts. The children are busy making pizza. We shall eat later.


And that’s it for today. Further reports tomorrow of our adventures in Buckinghamshire.


Life goes on. Stay safe and well, everyone!
