A head wind meant that we landed about 15 minutes late at Manchester, and in addition we used the 2nd runway which meant we had about a 15 minute taxi to the stand. But on the more positive side our luggage was on the carrousel to greet us.
Having located the car in the long stay car park, the drive south was tiring, and after dropping Angela off we arrived home in Worcester at about 2a.m. Too exhausted to blog yet, but I'll fill in some gaps later.
