I braved the M5/M6 on Friday afternoon to head to my friend in Northwich. Multimap swore blind to me the journey would take 3 hours, I assumed that meant 4hrs, in actual fact it took more than 6.5hrs to get there. It's a good job we're such good friends!!
On the plus side, there then followed a good 2 days of chatting, gossiping, putting the world to rights and generally having fun. We had a great long walk on Saturday afternoon after a gorgeous lunch in Knutsford (check out here http://www.piccolinorestaurants.co.uk/knutsford.html, thoroughly recommend it!) Then she introduced me to the Boondock Saints duo of films and we had such a laugh over it all -not usual for a shoot-'em-up but trust me - they are extremely funny :)
The journey home on Sunday was less traumatic that the one on Friday, thank God, but I got home to some fairly stressful news and am now in immediate damage control mode. Lucky me, eh?
I hate being this far away from Al when things are this bad and I want to be there to support him and help him, but I can't. There's no one I can talk to or beg for help really - everyone has their own problems........
So there we go. Another week, another problem. Does life ever get easy?
