Family Day in Hell
The idea of having a "family day out" sounds really good doesnt it? Reality bites sometimes! After spending a small fortune on tickets and petrol to get to an amusement park we spent the first 4 hours of it soaked to the skin and feeling pretty miserable. Things only turned around after 2 o'clock when it actually stopped raining - dare I pray that the sun come out? IT DID! Such a relief - it actually dried up and we managed to grab a few fun rides and let the kids run about - the day was salvaged! Only narrowly missing a huge traffic jam on the M4 due to an accident that happened it front of us, Drew like the Knight on his silver horse, rode in to save the day - taking control of the situation and making sure the injured were alright, he then blagged it with the firemen there to let us through. Zipping down the M4 when it's completely clear of traffic was fun!
