Jill - nearly at the end

My husband works away a lot and as you say someone has to earn the money!!!!! I am always saying to him "just for some time on my own!!" hes always telling me that its awful when he's away and it makes you realize what you have, so maybe I should do it, I used to work away from home before I had our son and I have to say I enjoyed it - but I did get to stay in nice hotels ohhhhhhhhhh but that was a long time ago, maybe one day..................[msnsmile2]

I'm setting off tomorrow for my first trip on my own and I just wanted to let you know that your trip reports have made me feel a lot less apprehensive about it. It has been good to hear about somebody else getting used to the driving and coping on their own navigating etc.

This report has made me think that I might try a Water Park or something on my own too whilst I'm there - time permitting as I've got a LOT of shopping to do!

Thanks again

Tracey that's a pleasure. Just take a deep breath before driving and if you're a bit apprehensive just drive a bit slower and don't be intimidated by other drivers - they can pass you afterall. I find if you talk to people they're generally friendly but it does take confidence to make the first move.

My husband travels too and complains about hotel food and longs for a plain sausage and mash when he returns home - I think time alone is good for both partners. I know in our case absence does make the heart grow fonderbut appreciate it doesn't work for everyone. Maybe that's why we've been together for 25 years and look forward to the next.
