The Blog...

Just in case you were wondering, we eventually made it to Spain through the snow blizzards and wind in France, up mountains and sleepy, stressful times.

up on a mountain

I have got a lot to type up and post. Hopefully grab a chance this weekend.

Snow stops play

We are going to take three days to drive down, Max and Paddy style/boys holiday tour, but the van is stuck at Matt and Hien's due to the snow. They were only able to move it 6ft forward and 6ft back and still managed to nearly hit another car.

We'll see if things get better over the next day or so as we may still be able to make the journey but depends on whether the weather continues to be so bad that people end up sleeping in their cars on the main roads. It's 20 degrees as well in Spain.

Brrrrrr.

Spongebob Day

Saw the nephews, had Spongebob Squarepants Day with them and a new nephew was born on the Tuesday.

Sun, wind, snow and rain plus 909 miles in the car.

It was also Ken's 21st party that we had in As You Like It, Jesmond. Thanks to Duncan for putting a good spread on and great to see everyone there.
