Picnicing in the car

half an hour into our mammoth 6 hour journey home, Tilly has been singing all the way so far ETA home by 5pm (allowing for stops)

Travelling back home from Mum's all the way home through deep snow and closed motorways. As always, was very hard to say goodbye to mum. I did the usual bye and look away as tears filled my eyes. Why do I do that?

Anyway, Tilly was an absolute angel the whole way back. I sat in the back with her. Richard had to drive through terrible snow as the M8 was closed, we were diverted the scenic route via Biggar. It was deep there and the roads small and untreated.

We got almost to Gretna Green when Tilly started to shout for a poo & her potty so we took the opportunity to stop for lunch too. We had a picnic in the car.

We had a quick mooch around and then we set off. We spent a further 4 or 5 hours in the car, arriving home just before 6pm. Poor Tilly. When we got in she was delighted to see Shoomi.

Happy New Year
