I'd been to Churchill for a second day yesterday but had no work jacked up for today - that is until the 7:45am call saying I had work in Wyvern School in Weston-Super-(Night)Mare. Took the A370 as it appeared more direct, but was slower than the M5 option. Where our small talk used to be about the weather in Dunners, it is now about the roads. "Oh, you should have been right on the A370 although there are lots of lights so perhaps you should have taken the A38 to Smellybottom then turned on to the B315667 to avoid Crinklyknees and cut back on to the A370 just after Middle Wicket."
Anyway, Wyvern was OK although you have to watch out for a school that begins its introductory package at the disciplinary stuff. I'd put it between the two I've already been to on first impressions. I finished at 3:00pm so drove along the beachfront before heading of to pick up J. Shouldn't have rushed as she was in a meeting until 5pm, the circumstances of which caused a little bit of a 'discussion' between us.
The petrol tank had been on red light since I left work, and after two of the petrol stations shown on our map proved to have been closed and demolished we were getting a little desperate. Fortunately we found one just in time. It's 96p per litre here - approx NZ$2.60 p/l - and the tank cost L51.00 - NZ$140 odd! We get 360 miles on the tank, so that's 580 odd km. Reasonable mileage but expensive compared to home.
