sawylUp early to Finish things off before heading down to St Davids to catch the mid-morning train to Birmingham.
With hindsight this may not have been the best of choices: the train was packed to the point where even first class was full and I was required to stand the entire way. It turned out that the train was full of Royal Navy cadets on their way back from Dartmouth, exhausted because they'd spent most of the previous 24 hours setting up, hosting, and cleaning up after the naval college's Christmas ball.
But for all that, I arrived in good time for lunch and had a relatively relaxed afternoon with the parents
