Sitting in the front seat – Back to work for me today, so Ginger has had to keep herself entertained. After work, we went for a walk along the beach. As neither of us took a Self-portrait during the day we did a mini-shoot in the car when we got back to the flat. 2

Doing the American tourist thing — Our route back from Birmingham took us near Stonehenge, at which point Ginger declared “Rebbie will never forgive me if I don’t go see it.”
