Why two cars are much better than one

-

THE twins have gone on tour.

They’ve already appeared at one venue, in rural North Yorkshire, where they won the crowd over with their ability to copy a duck quack.

Now they’re halfway through the second leg, in a popular North Yorkshire seaside resort, and have yet to wow the audience – although Emma came close this morning with a spirited display of what’s best described as beat boxing.

It’s a tour of the grandparen­ts and we’re fortunate because they

actually live in places people actually go for a holiday.

Obviously, I’d rather be on a yacht in the Cote d’azur with Jay Z and Beyoncé but sadly we’re not related to those two.

So far, it’s worked out well. Then again my idea of a holiday is now quite different to the traditiona­l definition. For example, I’ve been pleased with seven hours’ sleep, my mum preparing their porridge and not having to buy groceries.

A top tip for any family holiday is to travel separately without the actual family.

In our case, we were forced into travelling independen­tly due to our inability to afford a large family SUV. There was no way we could fit all the parapherna­lia and twins inside one fairly small hatchback so we split loads and took both our fairly small hatchbacks.
