It took me 4 hours to get there (Google said 3 and a bit, and luckily I added on some 'stuck on M25' time), so seeing we had to be there for 10am, you can guess how early I had to get up! However, I realised on the way home that I couldn't stop smiling, so it was well worth it :)VPhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02732971362066784175noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4793702278130036246.post-81882013285922750502016-09-07T11:09:22.157+01:002016-09-07T11:09:22.157+01:00I know!
