I drove my mum to a hospital appointment the other day. I left my house a little early so that I'd have plenty of time to get there so I decided to take the long route to her house for a change. That long route took in a steep hill which just so happened to be entirely closed off for roadworks. I did chuckle!
Ok, no problem, I still have plenty of time in hand. So I took the diversion instead. It took me deep into the countryside down sleepy little lanes lined with moon daisies and may blossom. I came across flower filled meadows and birds a-twittering.
I live in such a beautiful part of the world and I don't always get to appreciate it. But I did that day.
