Seeing family

My sister picked us up from the airport, and we had a good chat on the drive home through traffic (ahh... the M25... the world's largest car park). Hugs from Mum and Dad when we got home and lots more chatting. A bit later in the evening, my niece, Alice, came over to see us. Wow, has she grown. She was 9, nearly 10 when we saw her last, and now she's just turned 14. She's no longer a girl but a young woman.

All in all, it's good to be here, and relaxing, and having few obligations. Just what a holiday should be. I'm even doing very little thinking about work!
