To Da Norf!

Somewhere between London and Bristol, England, UK

We're taking the train from London to Bristol to go see Mike's third cousin July and her husband and two kids. We may or may not be going into Wales, but we will have a nice time "up north", possibly going for a swim. It's been nice and sunny for the past three days here in the London area, which everyone assures me is unheard of.

It's good to see Jonny British again, and it's nice to finally meet Jenny, after all I've heard about her. They are both gracious hosts, providing both the food and the shelter so needed in these trying days. They are quite a pair, and when you throw Mike into the mix, you can see why they all get along so well. Mike has frequently commented that he felt like Jonny and Jenny were his adopted UK parents, and I was never sure exactly what that meant. However, now, after witnessing their family reunion first hand, I think I do.

Verily. My manservants have refused to join me on my travels and I have been severely inconvenienced by the sub-standard skills of temporary foreign-born butlers and sherpas to run my day-to-day.
