Well here we go again folks but this time it's a special one. It's the newly weds honeymoon blog, and yes there will be a censorship in place at times. Not going to be as full as some other trips but will try and get bits updated when we can. We left leeds this morning on the 10:45 London Kings Cross train after being dropped at the station by my dad and my emotional mum (love em to bits).
