Well, the last 48 hours have been...eventful.
The journey back to Manchester was pleasant, despite the heavy fog causing massive disruption to road and air travel at present - clearly train in the way to go right now. To my surprise and delight, the "cheap" ticket I booked turned out to be first class! So there I was, sitting there whilst I was offered free wine, free sandwiches, free tea and coffee... But when it's 11:30am, perhaps not the best time to accept the wine offer.
Chatted to dad lots, who collected me from station. Got home, and had time to spod a tiny bit before we headed to the supermarket for Christmas food shopping.
It was when we got back that we found alarms going off all along the street. Yup, there was a power cut. ( How we spent ~20 hours without power. )
( And what a day today was! )
Thank goodness working full time has made me re-learn how to have energy!
