That's magical and sad and beautiful all at once 🌈2023: the year I get to buy a car6

She did have a letter from our MP and the three year permit had been issued but hadn't arrived by the time they left. So a massive journey - they left Odessa on Sunday and will get to us late afternoon tomorrow.
I will NEVER use a travelodge EVER. They would not let her have another night even though they were very unlikely to sell it on the day.
The horses are spoilt. They made DH take them apples "because they were hot".
So tomorrow night we'll be 6 again and Saturday night we'll be 7 as DD1 returns.

That's appalling of Travelodge
Sadly, I'm using a travelodge next month the night before the holiday
as it's walking distance from the terminal. I'll remember what they've done, though
Hope you all have an enjoyable dinner together tomorrow.
