20 Miles - So Near Yet So Far

amy sacks diane reading sunglasses
I hate returning from Paris those 20 miles between us are the longest 20 miles on earth. How different can two countries be when only 20 miles apart?
I returned this time through the Channel Tunnel - an amazing feat of engineering. Just drive the car onto the train and 35 minutes later you're there.
Why am I here with sunglasses on? Well some months ago I featured a pair of glasses named Diane (my full name) by Amy Sacks in New York. Well those lovely people sent me a pair of Diane Reading Sunglasses so I can read in the sun without having to wear two pairs of glasses at the same time. Now how nice was that of them? Anyway I took this picture of me with them on whilst waiting for the train as a little thank you to Amy Sacks for my lovely gift.

    And I can't begin to tell you how jealous I am of those 20 miles...
