AND FINALLY

So now we're home after 7 or so weeks on the road and back today to the awful weather we endured during the first few weeks of our trip. The last few days we enjoyed great weather as well as fun and profitable racing at Fakenham which was preceded by a couple of pony races.

It's been a great trip, catching up with so many old friends and something I'm sure we'll do again in a couple of years.
It was also good to see the real ale scene thriving with so many different micro-breweries opening up and providing local pubs. Also, a bit quirky, is bread. We usually buy granary bread from Tesco/Sainsbury but noticed that as we went south the bread became sweeter. It suppose it must cater to local tastes but it is a bit odd.
Anyway, thanks to everybody who has entertained us over the last few weeks and thanks to all who have read the blog. Next blog will, we hope, cover our trip to Italy in September/October which I trust will be more interesting to the casual reader who do not share all our friends.

Until then,
J&P
