Re: docking day
How many of you got the channels?
Always the best feeling all trip, getting home to family, worse feeling was when you packed again to head back. Can honestly say the week before setting of many a time my wife and I got in to being a bit snappy with each other. A good woman fussing about making sure you had packed everything you needed , but it did get annoying at times.
Stranest thing I found in my suitcase, just before I got in the taxi, we had a wee cat and she had been missing for nearly 2 days, unlike her to go AWOL. As I brought the suitcase down stairs I could hear her , opened the case and there she was lol. she was nearly on her way to Tokoyo
She must have thought this looks comfy and snuggled down for a kip. The wife used to put a bar of dark chocolate in my case as a surprise for when I opened it. She must have closed the lid after she did it and never noticed Rosie snuggled down.
