Day 2915 & 2916 (23 & 24/12/2017)

I had some work to do first thing Saturday but the rest of the day was fairly relaxed, I even had time to make a subtle repair the giant gnome Santa's and put them out for Christmas.


Then we made time to go to Bridgwater to make Kim's grave a bit festive, with a new little Christmas tree and fresh flowers. My wife always makes it looks nice for our friend.

On the way back we stopped off to warm up with a hot drink and a cake.


In the evening Lee joined us and we had some pizza's to make life a bit easier.


Sunday we had breakfast at my Mum & Dad's, which is in full festive swing.

 
In the afternoon we went up to Bristol to see Mary with all of Leah's family.




Then we went into Ashton to drop off some presents but as we had a slow puncture we pulled into a Sainsbury’s garage to put air in our tyres but the machine wasn’t working, so we drove off, just as someone ran into the garage, and we went up the road to another garage and used their machine instead.

Whilst putting the air into the tyres I was aware of a couple of police cars with two's & blues driving down the road but thought nothing more of it.

After dropping off the presents we went for some food at Nando's. The food was alright but it was really nice to all be together enjoying ourselves.



Then we drove of home but as we got into Taunton we were followed by a police car, which followed us in to Galmington and eventually stopped us with lights flashing, and were joined by more police cars and armed officers as apparently we had driven thru the Sainsbury's garage at the same time as an armed robbery took place and our vehicle had been circulated as being involved.

They even had to check the kids in the back weren't holding us at gun point.

The officers were OK and I think soon realised it was just a coincidence, so eventually we were free to go.
