Today a spanner was thrown in our carefully organised works by Brian [the publican at The Red Lion], who asked us if we could leave on the 8th of May instead of the 22nd. We have already booked and paid for our flights to Athens but it shouldn’t be too hard to bring the date of departure forward one week. We will spend the first week away from the pub going to visit Janice and Brian [my cousin and her husband] in Pontypool, in Wales, and the Blakiston kinfolks in Swindon.
