Bloc was lovely

It's great, hope you enjoyed it too

It's a great idea, takes the stress out of the first day

Not the one that we stayed in, but maybe they have bigger rooms?

I love that you had eggs and soldiers followed by fish finger wraps, we like to use up stuff before a holiday, one year we had some potatoes and onions but not much else so I made corned beef hash as a pre travel day lunch. I'm really looking forward to the next update, fingers crossed it will be here shortly.
Thanks for reading

That's the reason I do these reports - so that I can document the holidays and see Isabella getting older with each one. It's so great to be able to look back

I really fancy boiled egg and soldiers now, even though it's 10:30pm and I'm in bed

Love your happy faces on the way to the airport

Eagerly awaiting Travel Day
Thanks for reading

I’ve always liked the look of Bloc, we’ve stayed a Premier Inn Hub and it was very similar, you have everything you need for a reasonable price. Looking forward to reading about your trip as I foresee a May visit in our future.
Bloc was lovely

It's worth a stay

An easy drive on the M25 luck must have been on your side.

Looking forward to reading your further tripies! I read your last one as your daughter is a similar age to ours so good to see how she coped with it all! 😊

Not noisy at all
