Love, Poetry and Revolution - April Fool's Day and beyond (1st and 2nd April 2023)

April Fool's day started like any other Saturday.  Shopping, breakfast, and then all change!  I'm now getting ready to drive to Liverpool ahead of an even longer drive to Cornwall tomorrow.

I'm packed. Time to drive to Liverpool.

As if by magic, in the space between two sentences, I've arrived in Liverpool, and am greeted by Q.

We catch up and then watch some MAFSA together, before Φ makes chicken tacos which we all enjoy with some salad and smashed avocado.

After some tidying and chilling Q and I heads for bed, as we have a moderately early start tomorrow.

Surprise!  The trip to Cornwall took so long there was no time to post the blog, or finish it, so it's now been extended to cover Sunday as well.  This has all been written after the event, the past is tense.

Q and I had a very easy journey down to Sedgemoor services on the M5 where we'd arranged to meet the school friend in question.  In true British style we met and ate sandwiches in the car park of the services, before beginning the final leg of the journey to Cornwall.

The final leg was undertaken in convoy, with us following. 

We got to the bungalow in mid-afternoon and though it was a little cloudy, with some sun, the view of the sea was spectacular. 

After unpacking, we went on a tour of of the area, culminating in a fish and chip supper at the local pub. The pub staff all wore a couple of distinctive t-shirt designs, and so M asked one of the barmaids if they sold them. Fatefully, the barmaid asked if we'd like the one she was wearing.  I cannot repeat the rest of the conversation, but we did both go away with matching t-shirts!

I'll try and post tomorrow, but no promises.
