Food or fuel

...rn the page.

Was how yesterday's entry should have finished, but my iPhone had other ideas. Perhaps it knew something we would only know this morning: that our meeting to sign for our new house would be delayed again. There may be spme page turning tomorrow morning but don't get your hopes up.

Today was all about driving. We are in the unecological (and somewhat illogical) position of having two cars and a van. And two drivers in the family. So, we drove the van and most comfortable car north to Lavaur, then returned in the car to pick up the other car. the first leg took a yawnworthy five and a half hours, the second just under two hours - which helps you see just how slow the van is...

I'm not good at driving for long spells. I envy Mr B his ability to drive for hours and hours and still remain a safe and alert driver. My limit is about three hours, less after a dreadful night's sleep like last night. But we are here now, with no long drives tomorrow, and only 1,000 miles to do to get back to Fife next week...

We will be planting many trees in our new garden to offset today's carbon consumption.
