Lancashire

Tuesday 17th July
I had a pretty good run up the M5 and M6 with only about 10 minutes of rain and half an hour of wet roads. I left at 16:10 and arrived at 19:30.

My friend J had recently moved into a new house and the street signs had still to be put up. Sheld had cooked a lovely dinner complete with salad fresh from the new garden.

We caught up and had an early night.

Wednesday 18th July
There are some advantages to new houses. I was particularly taken with the blue button at the bathroom door. When pressed this started the shower and set the temperature to the setting previously used. Neat!

Spent the day helping out and having a look at one or two problems with the computers.

In the evening we went for a meal at the usual pub in a small village nearby.

Thursday 19th July
An early start followed by a full day continuing on from yesterday. Followed J on the Monster to work A lovely drive through rural Lancashire.

Got a lot done and left at 16:45 for Yorkshire via the A59.
