Arrival

We've arrived at the house in Omnibury, near Craven Arms in Shropshire.  We left Ferndown in the mini bus at about 9.30 and had a good drive; we caught a bit of traffic in Salisbury and Marlborough, but not too bad.  Phil and Carol are in their caravan and we met them at the coffee stop just after Marlborough.  It always takes time to sort out once you arrive, and we all found our bedrooms, tried to  get the heating going; inspecting the swimming pool and tennis court.  Sainsburys delivered our massive load and we struggled to get everything in the one fridge and freezer - we have subsequently found a fridge in the barn near the barbecue for the beer!
So we have had the first cake tasting - Walt made a 'dead fly cake',  a roll of pastry full of whiskey soaked currants ; very good - well done Walt.   Beer has also started to flow along with the red and white wines;  dinner was prepared by Phil, Carol and Lyn; a spaghetti bolognaise followed by gooseberry and rhubarb crumble.

Tomorrow we are off for the walk, hopefully leaving about 8am to drive to the start at Bridgenorth.

Tim has a quiz for this evening.  - it's now after the quiz, and our brains were really taxed.  Try this one, which was quite an easy one  ' what are the next 2 letters in the series O T T F F S S __  __.  Answer tomorrow.
