Up early and on the move after collecting my winnings
from the Grand National jumps race on Saturday. My horse came second in the
closest finish ever. The race had 40 starters-less than half finished and two
horses had to be put down.
We said goodbye and travelled back to London Gatwick via
Lewes and Ringmer which are the villages that my grandmother and grandfather
came from. Found the house in Ringmer (again) and took another photo.
Arrived at Gatwick
to find some flights cancelled including ours. Earlier in the day a Virgin
flight had filled with smoke after takeoff and had made an emergency landing
with slides deployed etc. The runway was
then closed for hours whilst safety people inspected it. We were bussed to
Heathrow then caught a 7pm (instead of 5pm) flight to Glasgow. In hotel by 9.15, quick meal and bed.
