355 - The holiday's begun, the sun has shone

The holiday’s begun, the sun has shone,
We drove down the M6 - what fun - and the
Boring old A14 that’s so humdrum,
Past Kettering and Cambridge, past Bury
St Edmunds, where flat land is all you see,
Then further towards Diss, Bungay, Beccles,
And at, long last, to Carlton near the sea-
Side port and beach of Lowestoft. Hotels
Don’t come much better than this, though the spell’s
Broken a little by the thump, thump, thump
From that well-attended wedding party
In the big room just yards away - the fools!
An early night, so I must get this done
And join my wife in bed, or she’ll hate me!
