Good morning peeps,
Thanks so much for all your lovely comments on my last post. Yesterday the town centre was bizarrely quiet, there were various helicopters hovering over the motorway but the roads were so quiet. I don't know if it's because police have asked people not to travel if they don't have to expecting the traffic to be congested with the motorway still closed, or if everyone is fixed on watching the TV waiting for news of those poor people who lost their lives & how the hell this horrific accident happened.
On a brighter note hubby couldn't resist riding his motorbike any longer even though the surgeon said he shouldn't ride it until next week, at least he wasn't such a grump after he'd spent some time with his beloved Harley lol.
Today is new challenge day at
