Now we are six

Austin is on his way home. In fact, he may well be back in Japan by now, though not back at home yet. He's flying into Tokyo and then on to Nagoya. Not sure how he's getting home from there.

We all (except Tabitha who was at work) wandered into town yesterday morning (pizza for breakfast! Not entirely sure about bacon, egg, sausage, mushroom and cheese on pizza for breakfast) then The Builder and I took Austin to Heathrow. Not a bad trip down; we arrived pretty much at the time the Sat Nav said we would. We delivered Austin to Japan Airlines and then headed back to Cambridge.

We decided not to come back along the M25. There had been some delays heading in the opposite direction when we were going to the airport. So Jenny took us up though Ealing and past Acton. We lived in Acton when I was a child. Haven't been there since 1965. There wasn't time to explore yesterday, but we might head back one day and have a bit of a poke about. It actually wasn't a bad route back, although 5pm on a Thursday might not have been an ideal time to do it!!!

More pizza last night. No chance of my wedding trousers fitting again at the moment!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Lindsey walked 30k steps yesterday. It seems likely that Ian and Gareth probably walked a similar number of steps

PS. We've found Lindsey's touristy socks. At Heathrow in a gift shop. Socks with underground maps. She's quite pleased with them
