We’re off!
Well, it seems OK. Yesterday morning Ed visited the doctor again, who gave him the all-clear for the flight to Portugal. Since we leave at 7.10am from Stansted, and therefore have to be there at the ungodly hour of 5.10am (yes, there is such a time), we’re driving down to Stansted after lunch today and putting up at a B&B (well, a B anyway. Not sure we’ll feel much like the other B at 4.30am) and leaving the car there. They’ll transport us to the airport and pick us up on the way back.
So here we are – all set. I’m taking a little netbook with me, there’s free wi-fi, so as long as the tiny netbook doesn’t drive me demented, I’ll try and blog a bit while we’re there. Otherwise, see you all in a fortnight.
Oh, BTW, there are ghastly storms in Portugal at the moment! C’est la vie!
