With current political news on benefits and social care funding cuts, my recent trip and more fundamental parts of my life would be compromised.

Los Angeles and flat car batteries
The drive to our hotel in LA, near to LAX airport took 4 hours. This would have been sizeable, but it flew compared to San Fran to Vegas. I was kind of glad to leave Vegas in the end. I would go another time with a bigger budget to gamble and maybe one crazier drunk… Continue Reading
Las Vegas and how I lost it all
