Somerset
I could have been
on my way to Somerset
and yet
I am here
at home
and much happier
Travel broadens the mind
but I find
at times
it’s best to rest
where you are the host
and not the guest

Thoughts
We didn’t take a summer holiday this year but we did toy with the idea of heading to Somerset for a week. The only snag was it meant travelling on a Bank Holiday Monday. Not the best idea, I’m sure you will agree, so we elected to stay at home. I love Somerset and haven’t been for over twenty years. We will have to go at a more sensible time.
