I understand your daughter abby went with another family. Yes, that's right. So my friend sally and i had arranged a family, you know, get away on a long week end in june. And we had aa four hour journey ahead of us. They didn't turn up later when they should have done, but we didn't really think anything of it at the time. Lucy and her family went to a local restaurant and sat down to dinner. Abby still hadn't arrived. But they were not too worried.
