Road Trip To Blackpool

“After all, the best part of a holiday is perhaps not so much to be resting yourself, as to see all the other fellows busy working.”

The alarm went off...
 Quick breakfast.
We loaded up the car.

I left in disgust.

We nip into McDonalds↓

I had to sing along with them...
We were great as a trio.
The song was↓

Trying To Pack The Bag.
