The plan was that we would take the bus in to Ipswich and collect the hire car to use for the next four days. The bus bit worked fine. UK seniors free and us £2.40 ($4.13 CAD) each. The car bit no so much. Bill had booked the hire in September and showed them his (Cypriot) driving licence. Everything was fine, but they had neglected to say that since his driving licence was foreign he should bring his passport as ID. So a little unhappy discussion resulting in an agreement that we would be back tomorrow with the documentation and get the car for three days. 


Bus back, but interesting stop at a charity shop where we admire much but actually only buy a lampshade for Jane’s sitting room lamp. Which turns out to fit the lamp and the living room decor very well. Quiet afternoon. Turns out it’s Jane and Bill’s forty-second wedding anniversary. Time to open the port. 🍷🍷
