We left our London Hotel in a cab and made our way to Euston Station. We managed to get stuck in traffic behind a troop of Household Cavalry which we did not mind. A very helpful porter at Euston managed to get us on an earlier train to Chester and we can highly recommend Virgin trains... More room than an aircraft seat and free Wifi. There was some delay due to a broken down train ahead of us. Our real dramas of the day occured when Thrifty Rental cars gave us a car that had no fuel in it which meant we had to back track and they filled the car with 77 pounds of diesel. We also managed to get lost two or three times by lack of signposting that meant something to us!!
Arrived however at Pickmere Country Guest House in Pickmere a village near Vivienne's 90 year old aunt. It's covered with snow.
We took a 2 minute walk to The Elms for our meal which was a good value meal after paying London prices all week
