I went to bed after midnight on, what was then, Tuesday morning and needed to be up again some FOUR HOURS later to pack and get myself ready for a 6.50am flight out. I was out the door by 5.10am. Got the airport 10 mins later…had to wait another 10 mins for a shuttle bus…
A bucket list dream was ticked off today with a visit to Trinity College. About 32 years it has been on the “must see” list…and finally! It happened.

OMG! Just to tease me, someone caught the Toblerone banter at the Palladium. I can also confirm James did not look too happy about being there. Lol
Palladium: I thought I was going to be late into London. Was panicking about missing the coach to London and then traffic being chaotic and getting there with very little time to spare. As it was, I got there in plenty of time – with two hours before doors opened. I was totally dolled up….

Now…where do I start with this one? Getting there? Delays getting into Hull. Points signal failures in Hull meant trains arriving were backing up. It took a good extra hour before I arrived in Brid. I checked into the place I was staying at. I was meant to have a single room, but was given…
