Hi the trip up was wet and misty ... Left work at 4.30 and stooped for coffee at Family Farm near the M40...
The I got to my Nemisis the M42 / M6 .... Gertie did here normal thing and directed me west this time .... Bugger ... Stopped at a Shell garage for fuel and the nice chap showed me a short cut over the other side of the M6 and back to the M42 and of the castle Donnington . Arrived at 8pm and pitched the tent and am now in the bar enjoying a beer and a scampi and chips ??????
