Visited Grandma Saruman this weekend.
Took us about 5 hours to get there on Friday night. A lorry had crashed into the central reservation on the M62 causing massive tailbacks in both directions. I know that you shouldn't laugh at others misfortunes, but the lorry was called "The Flying Fridge".
On Saturday morning we took Frodo and Samwise to see the REAL Thomas the Tank Engine, who was visiting the wensleydale railway that day.
They took it all pretty matter of factly (well of course he's real). Even the Fat Controller was there, who for political correctness now prefers his actual name of "Sir Topham Hat".
In the afternoon we went to Whitby. Saw Whitby Abbey in the fog (but no vampires) Then went to the beach to skim stones and pick up some decorative pebbles.
Got back home in good time today - everybody's knackered.
