Thats me back home from Plymouth after the funeral, and the ashes scattered at the Hoe, as per my dads wishes.
Met family members I never knew.and gave him a good send off
Bloody nightmare going down 12 hours due to stop start traffic 3.5 hours from junction 25 to 17 on the M6
Back up in 8 hours
Had a look for Chris the fish yesterday as was out shopping with her indoors, did not find him but left a message with one of the drivers on the rank to say I was there.

A good nights sleep then a long day and night ahead due to new year :D fare and a half from 6 PM tomorrow night, right through to 6 AM on the 3rd :D :D

9pm tomorrow to 6am fare and a half
6am till 9pm of the 1st fare and a quarter
9pm of 1st till 6am of the 2nd fare and a half
6am of 2nd till 6am of the 3rd fare and a quarter (9pm of 2nd till 6am of 3rd usually that anyway)

seems fair to both drivers and punters to me. any more would be pushing it imo.

Sorry I didn't see you Skippy, never got the message either - and that B A R S T E D video car gave me a ticket a few months ago. Hope it missed you!
