The start of the holiday - a brief note

I don't suppose that famous travel writers like Jan Morris or Paul Theroux would start writing about their travels by announcing they were spending the night in a Premier Inn .... however it seemed to make sense to me.

The Gatwick bus from Oxford isn't the most exciting way to travel (except when the driver forgot to raise the suspension leaving the South terminal) but, hey - it's got to be better than hitchhiking.

So I'm all set - apart from stupidly leaving the SD card adaptor at home. Dixons will be paid a visit in the morning!

Now I'm off to dinner - the next time I post, I'll be in Italy. I very much hope it's warmer, and sunnier, than here!
