Our drive to the cottage near Whitby (a bit of a misnomer as it has five bedrooms and massive communal rooms) passed very smoothly. We didn't get held up on the M62, as is normal, or even on the notorious A64 near York (afterwards we realised that might be because we were travelling while the FA Cup was being played). Emily was very close to sleep when we arrived, but as soon as she saw Tom and Fern she went mental, running about and yelling. They both had doll buggies and she loved pushing her monkey around in one. I was really pleased with my choice of accommodation; the converted farm buildings were smart and modern and extremely spacious.
At seven we gave them a quick bath together, which caused even more excitement. I was amazed that Emily managed to go to sleep because Tom and Fern were haring up an down on the wooden floor of the lounge, right over our bedroom.
