Long Weekend

Well, we went to Paignton for the family reunion and drove up in the hired Ford Fiesta once I had taxed the van online, as the new Registration document arrived very early. A very nice car but a trifle small for my taste. For the trip to Torbay and back, it was fine but any longer in such a small car and I think I might have got a bit claustrophobic. Not all the party didn't find it perfect though. Samuel went with us and thought it was brilliant! Mind you, he also enjoyed sleeping on the floor of our room in a sleeping bag because they had run out of family rooms. The sun was deceptively bright on Friday and, playing golf with Samuel, I ended up with a bad case of heat exhaustion. I managed to hold out until Philip and Kristie had left and then retired to bed until the following morning. I caught up with Russ on Saturday but was so tired, I ended up finishing early and falling into bed before ten. By Sunday I felt a lot better and did the taxi run for the whole family in the Fiesta.
