Moving day walk about before leaving. Decided that due to 2 washing machines and one drier that may create problems if someone left their clothes in the machine I would do it at the next site as there are 2 of each. Guess what one of the driers is out of order.

Added plenty of time to allow for roadworks and shopping NO PROBLEMS today so got there early. ####

Drive down terrible as usual driving on the M52 is live driving a vehicle without tyres  on. And after 10 years of building smart motorways it is now taking 10 years to put in safe stopping areas!

Lovely flowers on site well kept. Late arriving so missed dinner break so coffee and afternoon Tiffin.
