Road Trip

The hu-man had to make a trip for Work to somewhere called Bolton. So, since it has been such lovely weather, I decided it would be a good idea to accompany him on a little road trip. It was going to be a long trip, he said it was about 400 miles, what ever they are, so I thought it would a good idea to take the van, as it's far more comfortable than his other vehicle.

We set off early to beat the morning traffic, the signs on the motorway seemed to be telling the hu-man something.

Not that I'm suggesting anything but .....

The views out the window were fantastic, but did find the flies hitting the windscreen a bit scarey at 70mph (honest).

We slipped over 'the border' without being stopped. Thought we might have to show our passports or something.

Finally made it Bolton. Appears that the hu-man had driven all this way to look at a couple of doors. Now, admittedly they were VERY BIG doors, but why drive 3-4 hours just to look at a door. He's got plenty in his house as it is, and anyway these would fit !!

He said they were for a client who needed some really BIG doors in case things exploded. sounds scarey !!

On the way home we spotted this little car. It was about the right size for me, but don't fancy putting a bike on that rack. the car might do a wheelie .....

Finally made it all the way back to Scotland. Just in case anyone was in any doubt, they appear to have left a rather large size to remind you.

They appear to have moved the border south by a few hundred yards. Maybe they won't notice until we've conquered Carlisle ..........
