In the bleak midwinter
It was the first fall of snow we had seen and made the trip out to Auschwitz a very long and slow one as our coach struggled along the back-roads in a tail of vehicles moving at little more than 40kph.

Certain rules have to be followed with my father for birthdays and one is that he likes his balloons and jelly. Thus JJ and I had taken balloons with us along with party blowers so we could annoy them by making duck noises outside the adjoining door between the two rooms. One wonders what other clients thought of all these carrying ons.
At the airport we discovered that neither JJ nor I could get money out of our French bank accounts and it wouldn’t be until Tuesday morning that we discovered that the reason was that the limits on our withdrawals was so low as to be practically zero. Thankfully I ply my bank with chocolate and buns at Christmas so the matter was sorted within minutes of the call.
