We arrived at Southampton on a beautiful sunny day at the start of a heatwave. Little did we know, it wasn't going to last!!
..., but more of that later.
We (my wife Jane and I) drove the 2 hours or so down to Southampton and were expecting to drop our luggage off by the terminal, but they have changed this system and now when you park some guys take your luggage and put it in a van. Seems a bit of a waste of time to me, but there you go.
