Back to Bristol we go

It was a quick tube trip to Paddington Station where we boarded our train to Bristol. Normally you get plenty of time to make your way down the platform to your carriage, but this time, for some reason it appeared that the conductors were all very eager to get the train on the tracks and were blowing there whistles as we just made our way to the platform. We ran a little thinking that we would make it to carriage B, but when we realized we wouldn’t, leapt onto another carriage and then had to make our way through the carriages to our seats. It was an uneventful trip otherwise.

To get to Ann and Bryans we had to take a taxi from the train station and we had the funniest taxi driver EVER. He told us joke after joke as if he was auditioning for a stand up gig and he had us giggling the whole time, he was very funny and also very nice.

It was great to get back to Ann and Bryan. We haven’t seen them in so long, it was lovely to be able to catch up again and introduce Luke.

The evening went quickly and it was also really great to see Jenny and Martin once more. Jen joined us for dinner and after he’d finished work, Martin popped by also. It was a really nice, relaxed evening and, an early for once!
