Departure Day minus 4

We are back in Malvern with all the last minute preparations in hand.We arrived back from Lanzarote to a rather cold Birmingham airport....come on, everybody was saying how mild it is back here...I tell you 6 degrees from 23 degrees is a bit of a shock.
David collected us at the airport and took us back to Leamington where Kat had prepared a delicious meal and all supported with a traditional Christmas welcome.A special note of thanks to Alice & Tim who are our house sitters for the way they have looked after the house and especially Henry who looks really well

Early start on Friday at Malvern dealing with the postage build up, then on Saturday discovered we need International Driving Permits for the car hire in Thailand and had to detour to Evesham to collect from the post office.
Drove up to Barbara's for our annual Christmas get together with Jan , Colin and Sue.As ever this is a superb way to kick start Christmas even when we are not here for it!! Thanks everybody for a great time...hope you enjoy your festivities.

Back to the weather!!!......we were only saying the difference to last year..and then we  drive through semi blizzard conditions on our way from Eastham to Shaw..

Had a lovely lunch with Mum , Terry, Lily and Jo,Brian and a surprise visitor, David who came up to catch up with his Grandma.Great to see everybody looking so well.
