Bexhill-on-Sea and bad news

Toni, Sam, Gemima and I went over to Bexhill-on-Sea today to go and see Toni's nan (and her mum Gail, Leanne and Shivaani who were also there)

It was a bit of a nightmare journey getting there but we did arrive in the end.

We had a gorgeous roast beef dinner and sat around chatting before heading back to Eltham. Gemima went back with Gail, Leanne and Shivaani and Toni, Sam and I followed on shortly afterwards as I had to sort out Pam's answerphone before we left.

Once we had returned we unloaded the car and then Toni went off to Gail's to pick up Aaron and Gemima. Sadly I received a text not long afterwards saying that Gail had been taken to hospital in an ambulance.

Leanne went in the ambulance and Toni brought the kids back and we tried to be calm and wait on news. It was unsurprising that Leanne said that Gail was being kept in.

Managed to grab a brief bit of shut eye before Leanne phoned and Toni and I headed off to the hospital at 01:15 to pick her up. Sadly things were taking a lot longer than planned so we ended up staying whilst Gail had an x-ray and was transferred to a ward. Absolutely knackered we finally left the hospital around 04:00 and got to be just after 04:30 to try and grab some sleep before work.
