Don't Panic!

I thought 3.5 hours would be sufficient. I hadn't bargained however, for the crawling M20 and it taking 20 minutes to go one junction. After 50 minutes, we finally hit the M26 but with the M25 to come.

Unusually, the M25 was running freely but the M23 had the dreaded smart motorway roadworks. By this time, what had started out quite a chilled journey, was getting extremely stressful. 

At the car park, Catherine was pleading with the bus driver not to go, whilst I checked Nessa in. I was now confident we would make our flight in time, whilst Catherine's stress level was off the scale.

In the end, we made bag drop in good time but then had a shock when the board said flight delayed. Turned out, that was a different Bridgetown flight.

Panic over, we are now about to board.

Laters.

    I seem to recall a similar scenario last year, as we headed to catch the ferry in Bilbao

    Sounds iffy. We always stay overnight the night before locally if we have an early to lunchtime flight. Easter we are flying out of Gatwick at 4pm or so.
