A quick update, Dad phoned me last night and suggested that we borrow the little car and use Adrian and Emma's car as well which would give a great deal more flexibility than one big car. Also the little cars will be easier to maneuver and hopefully park.

Also I got caught by a pigeon playing poo-poo bombadiers yesterday morning on the way to work, thus my jacket and bag went into the laundry last night. Unfortunately someone else was already using the only washing machine, so I didn't quite have enough time to fully dry everything before the laundry room was locked for the night.
