Fog

It was a lovely sunny morning on our side of the Pennines, but as we drove over the A66 in an easterly direction it became very foggy. It was foggy on the 18th of October 1969 too. I know that because it was our wedding day. 

Today I got flowers and we went out for breakfast at our favourite café on the A66. Then we went shopping at the best shop in Cumbria - Westmorland Services on the M6. Fortunately we know the back way in and can avoid actually going onto the motorway. 

And speaking of fog - the most indecipherable book won the Booker, as we all knew it would really, it wouldn't be the Booker if that didn't happen. I'm going back to finish the longlist,  where the best books are.
