are we nearly there yet?

It's likely I'll spend much of today on the road - however for the majority of the journey I won't have to referee or be encouraging about how we're nearly there. And I'll be the one who gets to choose the music.
I have a rehearsal deadline and a dog to collect but the journey will be what it will be. Just as lying in a tent wishing the rain would stop doesn't bring about cloud cessation, so worrying about traffic is also fruitless.
One of the phrases from the weekend was 'if you want to travel fast, travel alone. But if you want to travel far, travel together.' today I want to travel both fast and far. I guess I'll drive alone but bring you all along in my heart B-)
...
I'd forgotten that places imbued with memories can make travelling hard. Progress good so far and have had David lamotte with me.
...
Finally, 11 hours after I set off, I'm home (I did stop for a wedding choir rehearsal en route). I'm ludicrously tired and fed up of driving having driven 21 hours over 3 days of my 6 day holiday. And tomorrow I'm designated driver for a family wedding.
I have lots of damp tents and sleeping bags and so am not exactly delighted to discover the airing cupboard is sodden again. Time for a plumber? But first some sleep as I want to enjoy tomorrow :D
