Last week it was London, but this week, surprisingly, it's Manchester Airport. The industrial action has all been resolved with rapidity, and with a week's leave still left we decided that Laura should rebook some flights and make her visit after all, albeit a little truncated. I've always loved the idea of long journeys to far off places starting at a railway station. There's just something fabulously Victorian about it.
