POINTS WEST
It was in between lockdowns in some twilight period of 2020. I was all ready for an escape on the Monster 1200 to Cornwall. It had been a tough year so far, and being a key worker meant about double the usual workload, but then we were living in abnormal times. The upshot was, I was well ready for a decent break. With the B&B booked, Monster serviced and luggage strapped on to bike, I was good to go – then I got a call from work!
We had an emergency job in Northern Ireland, and even without the aid of a Satnav, I knew that this was not on the way to Cornwall. But work is work and after a late ferry booking, next day I was on my way to Birkenhead
