So, I’m on my way to London with my family and we stop at Watford Gap for a break as you do. And while waiting for everyone to finish buying supplies and using the bathrooms I spot one of those claw grab games full of cuddly toys that let’s you keep playing until you win something. Not really my cup of tea normally, but then right on top of a pile a Monkey gets my attention that is just what I have been looking for!
However, further investigation reveals that the positioning of the monkey means you can’t actually grab him, so a bit gutted I decided to mooch over to the stop to buy something to nibble at for the rest of the car journey, and suddenly get excited again when I discover the shop has a whole collection of toys on the shelves – But, damnit no monkeys there either – I thought, but by chance my Mum noticed one right at the back of the shelf and picked it out. Ace, so rather by chance I came across my Travel buddy (Who has his own website – of course, but it’s still very work in progress might post a link once it’s working)
