Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Spitfire and Hurricane in D-Day markings just skimmed my house on their way in for a low-level pass over Hughenden Manor. I never have my camera with me for moments like that but it was a glorious sight and sound.
They're having a 40's weekend ay The Manor and we can hear their PA and big band music very clearly from a mile away. Formerly the residence of Victorian PM Benjamin Disraeli it was used in WW2 by the Mapmakers who received reconnaissance photos and made maps for Bomber Command, based just another mile further from Trev Towers. Pardon me boy, is that the Chattenooga choo choo...

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
I would feel a lot better if there hadn't been an hour's delay to get a train last night and then no taxis at the station. The play finished at 10.25, I got home at 1.15 and had to be up again early for work this morning.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Fairly sure when I was in London on Friday we passed some buildings called hotels... I know it makes the night out a bit more expensive but with the trek you have to get home it would have been worth it.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
Kings Cross Travelodge for tomorrow night is £90 for single occupancy, cheaper if you book in advance. This coming Friday is £80. Sometimes it's worth it.

Re: Smile of the day - What is yours?
On this occasion I needed the car on Sunday to get to work and transport a painting and Stu needed it Saturday night. I could have stated with my friend had it not been for that.
Unfortunately when I stay in hotels my insomnia is even worse than at home. I often don't sleep at all. I used to stay in town when I had early starts at work but now I don't bother as I was finding I got less sleep than just getting up really early. Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
