Friday night in Fleet was England friendly night, the last hit out for the team on English soil before the World Cup in Brazil. This was against Peru and we came out 3-0 winners, not a great performance and the general consensus is a pessimistic one for Englands chances of success, we shall see in a couple of weeks.
High St Fleet with Mia
Mike and Penny
After a weekend of pizza, pizza and more pizza, with a little Indian thrown in....... we said our farewells to Mike and Ro, Mia and Tilly the labradors. Set the satnav for Bicester Outlet Village near Oxford and away we went. I choose the shortest route and it turned out to be inspired. Sunshine, country lanes, pretty villages. This was the first day of summer, everybody with a convertible car had the roof down, anyone with a dog was walking it and all the lycra clad folk were on their two wheelers holding up traffic!
On this trip we made a list of places we wanted to visit, on this list was Henley on Thames and lo and behold the satnav took us through it, so we stopped and went for a walk along the river for a look at the weir and lock. Although this was Henley, scene of the famous regatta, I have to report there was not a single straw boater to be seen, but I did have my fedora on. After a very pleasant hour we headed back to the car and on to Coventry.
