Thursday 22 December 2005

Thursday is the day I visit my Sister...left home in good time ....about 2 mile down the road there was Road works  - and as this is a very busy Road had a ten minute wait before the lights went Green...

Travelled another one hundred yards and met road  works on the other side of the Road. so had another 10 minute wait....

I didn't feel full of love and peace as was now a bit fed up with the hold ups..

Got onto the No speed Limited part of this Road - and travelled about six miles when there was another hold up.  this was caused by a minor Road Traffic accident so the hold up wasn't too long - 5 minutes at the most....

By this time I really could have done with a nice cup of tea.

I was now twenty five minutes late - and my sister does worry if I am not on time....

We were held up at the Golf course as there were Golfers crossing the road, and the driver in front of me decided to let them have the right of way.

The rest of my journey was uneventful - well other than a Bus Driver did let me have the right of way coming out of a minor road.  which do'es not happen too often.

Arrived at my sister Joy's to be met by that nice cup of tea and a piece of Chocolate Cake...

Enjoyed the photos of your Christmas trees.     I am getting some type of cold or hopefully not flu.    Spending time indoors and resting and reading.    Think I will go take Salty for a walk now.      Enjoyed the graphics,     mark
