Monday night was roasting in the room. I checked to make sure the heating was turned off...it was.....I opened both of the big windows and pinned back the net curtains......and both Ma and me slept on top of the beds. I didn't care if the folk in the hotel opposite got an eyeful of my rump.
We were both done in from the long journey and being up early....but once it started to get light the seagulls were screeching, the bin wagons made one hell of a noise and in the end I had to get up and close the windows. It didn't matter we didn't get back to sleep....and we had hours to wait for brekkie.
It was another beautiful day, the sun was cracking the flags.
We were off on a mystery tour for the morning.
Mick, our driver...
