Ho ho ho ho I am back here after an “internet blackout” since 2nd June. I thought I was very lucky to have stumbled into someone else network at the B&B in Inverness late one night. Unfortunately in the morning after, my laptop was down. It just refused to start up, lol. Thus for the next 10 days of the trip I was deprived of a computer.
OK lah, cut long story short, I left London Thursday at 6 pm after driving a distance of 1688 miles within 15 days, that’s about 2700 km. Not bad ya……
Route and destinations were carefully planned so that at any one time, traveling distance would not be exceeding 250 miles and each driver should not be driving more then 90 minutes at a stretch. So far this was my furthest distance ever and it was fun. Through out the 15 days more then 500 pix were taken and of course.....many shopping as well.
evening in Inverness
A castle somewhere in Scotland
wifey in Windemmer, Lake District
Warwick Castle in Stratford upon Avon
wifey on a street in Liverpool
An old building near the hotel in Liverpool
Stratford upon Avon
Cardiff Castle
City of Bath
Luggage to London was 45 kgs………back to Singapore was 70 kgs with some clothing left in UK to create space for new items. Among other things, these include 4 clocks…….an American Ansonia regulator, a Dutch Clock, an Enfield Mantel clock and a Napoleon 8 days Mantel. All except one reached home in perfect condition. The Enfield torsion spring was broken. Hope to get a replacement spring from eBay.
