Packing & Pasta

Another equally busy day today, rushing around trying to get things packed for our weekend away. Unfortuately for me that involves ironing too, something which I will try my hardest to avoid for perhaps 365 days of the year ;)

So after packing enough clothes for an entire fortnight away (my fault entirely, I can't decide what I am actually going to wear so just shove everything in the case I think might be a possibilty) I then get tea prepared so that as soon as Phil comes home we can have tea, load up the car and head off on the 4 hour trip to my parents.

The trip there was fine, we arrived at around 11pm after leaving here at around 7pm. I'm still a bit miffed that I have to pay to get into my own country however! £4.80 to go across a bridge which has probably been paid for umpteen times over by now is a little steep IMHO.

Oh, and incase you didn't know, the Labour party won the election here again for the 3rd time in a row (what a surprise!), but with its majority much reduced. So far as I'm concerned, 3rd time lucky does not apply in this case.
