4 April 2012 PORTSMOUTH TO HEATHROW Wednesday

I am so excited to be meeting up with a friend from my boys' childhood days.  She got the train from Brighton to us in Portsmouth, we chatted the whole time in the car while poor Al was trying to find his way, unbeknown to us, to the perfect cafe we went to on our first day there.
Coffee and choc cake all set out in front of us, we got back to the narrowing of the years, until we were all up-to-date with all the necessary details.

Courtney looks exactly like her mum did all those years ago.

We took time to admire the view as well, especially the hovercraft belting from sea to land like a beached whale.

Righto, off to Heathrow for our overnight stay and a last dinner with Kit and Dal before we leave tomorrow.
