Ian was off to Warrington for an audit and was scheduled to be audited rather than being the auditor, making him a little nervous. He woke up early, and after Jools went for a swim, he packed his bags and got ready to leave. It was a cold morning, but he still went for a walk and took some pictures before picking up the car. He was hoping to get a bigger car by choosing an automatic, but he got a Toyota Yaris. Next, he visited a former colleague who lives in Warrington, and after programming her address into his phone, he drove along his street and towards the A2 to Dartford. He listened to music, and his phone told him he would reach Fotheringhay, where Mary Queen of Scots was imprisoned and executed, at midday. He passed Oundle without stopping, but near Titchmarsh, he parked his car and visited the church.
Back on the road, his phone showed him the estimated time to reach Warrington, despite a bit of snow. He reached the M6 toll road and stopped for half an hour to have some refreshments, but as he resumed driving, the snow started falling heavily. He got stuck in a delay due to a crash, then finally arrived at his friend Teresa’s house. After an hour of chatting, he had to leave to meet someone, but heavy snow was making it hard to drive. Finally, he reached the golf resort where he was staying and parked his car, happy to be indoors.
