Today I caught the train to Wellingborough to meet my cousin Betty and her husband David.
I had a lovely time; we confirmed absolutely that we are cousins (although the formal documentation was clearly already showing this, Betty had copies of old family photos that confirmed it even more certainly). We spent quite a few hours talking, both at Betty's place and over lunch at a lovely pub.
I had a bit of a drama on the way to Wellingborough - they cancelled my train. However, the train back to Nottingham appeared as expected, so that's all good.
Paul came to the station to meet me, and on the way home we decided to have dinner. I'd had a big lunch but we went to a pizza place and I had a really nice, light pizza, which I liked enough to actually post a picture on Facebook (which is quite unlike me).
