We landed at the nice hour of 6am and it takes almost 45mins
to get off the plane and get to our bags. And WOW was it cold. Both Gobey and
me couldn’t get our jackets on quick enough. We went from 33C in Timika to 32C
in Bali to a brisk 6C in London Heathrow. But no time to hang about we have the car to
collect and get on the road.
We get the car and it’s nice. Range Rover V8 Sport all
leather and in black. Gobey wants this car (me on the other wasn’t bothered)
but I will admit it’s nice. We load the car up and head out of Heathrow for
Norwich. We are hoping to be in Norwich for 11am to collect Leah, but I still
don’t feel well and I don’t know who long I can last in the car without being
sick. Fingers crossed I last the 4 hours.
We arrive at school and the lady in reception goes to get
Leah from class. While we are standing in reception there is a contractor in
measuring the floor to replace tiles. So as we are standing there waiting Leah when
she comes out, walks straight past us till Gobey says ‘Leah are you not looking?’.
She was way too busy looking at the floor to notice anything else. But she was
more than happy to see us both.
Back in the car and we are on the road to Gloucester. We
have planned to stay at Auntie Pauline and Uncle Andy’s for the night so in the
morning we can head to Uncle Ian to talk about the wedding in June before
hitting the road to Blackpool. While in the car Gobey gives me the lovely job
of telling Leah we are not getting on a plane to Aberdeen but for the next 4
days we are driving to Gloucester, Blackpool and then to Aberdeen.
