Our last trip of 2016 was to Hamburg in Germany for the Christmas markets which was Richard's 35th birthday present. I have never been to Germany before so I was pretty excited. We worked from home in the morning and then drove over to a little village near terminal 5 and dropped the car off using the justpark website. Luckily we left with enough time as the guy basically didn't have enough petrol so asked if he could quickly fill up which was fine but a bit chee...

Our last hot holiday of 2016 was to Rhodes in Greece, we went on the 17th September.

Some guy with his family proceeded to push the queue and then slow it down and the second other officer ...

The lack of sleep during the week meant I was severely exhausted wh...

Our 3rd trip of 2015 was to Italy, the Venetian Riviera. On the Friday I worked from home and about 5pm I had a missed call. I googled the number and it turned out it was lowcostholidays. I tried to call back but within 5 mins I had an email and it turned out that our hotel was not booked properly. Rich had tried to book our transfer again with the hotel that day and this must of triggered the sequence of events which led to the phone call. It was a bit s...
