Off to Abergavenny

[Friday 23rd May]
We'd arranged to go and stay with Vera and Robin for the bank holiday weekend, and so I left work early today to go and get the train - along with half the population of London it seemed. Paddington was quite chaotic, they didn't announce the platform until the last minute, and then there was a huge rush by several hundred people to get to the train. Luckily I had booked a seat - and the train company had actually managed to put the little ticket in the seat for once and no-one else sat in it instead.

I arrived in Abergavenny around 7:30, and then we had a pub dinner with Vera, Robin, and one of my Dad's cousins who I hadn't met before. So that was nice. Chie arrived a bit later on, around 9:30, and shortly after that we headed back to Vera and Robin's house.
