Hello!

We've had an unplanned trip up North today to help Rachel & Scott move house, so we left home at 7.15am and even at that time the traffic was quite heavy but there weren't any hold ups until we got to the M6. Nevertheless we arrived just before 12pm so it wasn't too bad.

They've done a part exchange with the builders who are letting them keep the keys to their old house until next Wednesday which is helpful. We've done well today though and should have it finished tomorrow.

Of course an added bonus is being able to spend time with Scarlett & Violet, and the change in Violet since we last saw her is amazing - she's so responsive and has now found her voice.

Scarlett's just gone to bed and we're going to get an Indian take away and watch the F1 qualifying. Then Rach, Scott & Violet are going to sleep in the new house and we're staying at the old house with Scarlett.
