My sympathy for your loss, Sharron

You brought back memories there, Chi and Wittering. As you may recall, our first communication was about my time in Bracklesham Bay near the Witterings.

I am glad you managed to meet with your cousin's family even tho the cake wasn't up to your taste.
Hope your hubby's mouth soon heals

Around here, it was 'Boomtown' emptying out.

He doesn't have to speak in a weedy voice out of it so that must be an improvement!

Where has all this traffic come from? It was going west and it doesn't usually do that on a Monday.

Winchester was fun today. M3 gridlocked going North.
It was okay going south, but getting onto the Motorway was impossible at junction 9.
I walked home, and the traffic trying to get on the motorway stretched over a mile back into the city :-S

Hope your OH's mouth is better :-D

We get held up on the A27 but the other way - Brighton to Eastbourne. I have never seen queues quite like it especially the last 4 days for Airbourne. We are in Eastbourne and don't bother going to Airbourne as it all comes over our bungalow anyway.

Sorry for your loss.

Sorry for you loss Sharron. I seem to spend half my life in traffic jams lately. One of the joys of living in London and having to use the M25 to get anywhere outside it.

My cousin was to be cremated at eleven at Chichester and the wake was to be at a pub in Wittering.

Yesterday, OH wakes up with toothache, thinks it is an abcess. I took him to the pharmacy and told him to get himself some Oragel. The pharmacist did the probing questions bit which I always answer by telling them it is for somebody else. OH has never learned devious and the pharmacist decided he had to have Bonjela. May as well have had cold cream!

So, after a day in bed, we get him an appointment with the other dentist in the practice because ours is on holiday. The tooth had to come out which took us right through the appointed time of the funeral.

We had found it very hard to get into Chichester because the A27 was solid and there were road works once over it and getting into town.

We are local, we know back roads that avoid the main roads but were still held for about forty-five minutes getting on to the Wittering road so we did a little detour via home where I had to drop him off in time to see the chiropractor he had planned to see after the wake.

I finally got to the wake alone for half a sandwich and a piece of cake that had cinnamon in it and I can't stand cinnamon.As it was, the funeral had been an hour late because the celebrant was held up in the traffic!
