Journeys to make you dizzy

Phil is with us, finally! Here is the travel-stained version, having had what sounds like the journey of a lifetime, but not in a good way. If you were on Eurostar on Tuesday morning you may have experienced a 45 min delay - think petrol leak and ask Phil all about it. He tells a v good story :)

While he was having a kip, John and Clare and us ate at Le Pont - where Gert and Elsbeth were also lunching - delicious as ever. (Today is a fast day, in principle.)

Clare was en route to the station to take the train to London, family stuff. Should be a straightforward journey... apropos, Regina and Dougie have arrived safely in the UK and our friends Micheal and Nick have arrived from Germany. More on that anon.
