So we went to Istanbul - err, in February...

Yeah continuing with the out of date posting info the art trip this year was to Istanbul - it got off to a shaky start with a 32 hour delay and a stop off at a hotel at Heathrow with 40 bored and fed-up  teenagers, but we got there and we had a fine time whilst Noah ran Granny and Granddad absolutely ragged!!

I was so bored that I got onto instagram - the trouble is that (predictably) I have since discovered that I have neither the time nor inclination to really jump on board...... so the first few photo are my feeble attempt at recording the wait prior to our eventual flight to Istanbul....









Eventually we got there - how this guy looks is pretty much how we looked during our delay!
