Today we get some rain after all. Which means: we eat in the car instead of outside and mainly remain in the Friary shopping centre. Which we wanted to visit anyway. Nevertheless, we get quite wet on the way to some shops outside.

From our favourite parking spot in Guildford (what a pity: Jamie’s Italian is now a McDonald’s), we don’t drive back to the hotel, but to the Squires Garden Centre for a snack and a chat with Caroline. They have a great café with a covered outdoor area where we remain dry… or at least don’t get any wetter.

Then we do some grocery shopping and take Five Guys burgers back to the hotel where we watch The Great British Sewing Bee, my favourite sewing show, and start packing. Tomorrow, sadly, we’re heading home again.
