I thought that Zaragoza was more South central Spain? I'm pretty sure that I flew into Barcelona and we drove to Zaragoza in a couple of hours. Pretty scary though!

So you'll need to get a train from there to Amsterdam Central and change for Groningen? If I remember correctly it wasn't a particularly long train ride.

Where is the hotel? Ie, airport, city centre, etc. Hopefully the trains will have started running again by the morning.

They'd all be taller than him!

I hate it, although, it does mean that I can probably get out with the cycling group tomorrow morning!

We've got Mandy's son and his girlfriend staying with us this week. Mandy can't get anymore time off work, so I'm tour guide Barbie and catering manager this week. Anyway, they arise from their pit around lunchtime and then wonder why it's scorching hot outside and there's not really much of the day left to do anything! Kids!

If it's that bad they won't fly into it, they'll divert to somewhere else.

The joys of your jet-set lifestyle! TBF, at least they found you an alternative flight. Most just cancel your flight and then it's your problem to find an alternative! Anyway, I hope that you get to NL OK now.

The bubble of the UK housing market has got to burst at some point, Rich. Sit tight until that happens.

Jan Akkerman?

It's all go, this retirement lark! My sons were over for a week and then Mandy and I had a week near Venice. Met one of my old work colleagues for breakfast in Montpellier yesterday morning. Then spent the rest of the day doing housework in preparation for Mandy's son to arrive today with his girlfriend for a week. Then yesterday evening he contacted Mandy to say that his flight had been cancelled, but he's rearranged it for Saturday now. Mandy's got an appointment with anaesthetist tomorrow in readiness for her gallbladder removal the week after next. So, it's non-stop fun here!
