We set off for the station early morning and bid farewell to the crew that looked after us in their home our first home cooked meal since our adoptive family in Germany (hi to Manfred and Brigitte! We locate the hotel, which turns out to be the Selfridge just as Muzz had predicted. Fabulous!

So the morning was spent browsing the markets for gloves and scarves (we were in need of some warmer gear! Before heading to the supermarket for some groceries for dinner. Fridge filled and we set to the main street to buy a battalion button as well as a coffee to warm our bellies. And then the real fun begins! Flaming torch in hand, we walked the length of th...

Getting very close to our departure date and we decide to weigh everything. As it turns out we have gained 12kgs since leaving in July. That’s doesn’t mean us! We had bought a few extra toys along the way and now we were way over where we needed to be. We bundled up as much stuff we could into one of our roll packs and headed for Bath to post half of our possessions home. A circus in Bath.

Up early and we pack all the gear and load the bikes. After having a big clean out and turfing everything that was not making the trip back to Oz, our load is significantly less! We rug up in our wet weather gear and head for port. Instead, we do a few laps of Portsmouth looking for a hotel. After one knock back, we do find a B and B that has room, but it's above a pub and Nick comes ...

To say we are winding down is a little bit of an understatement. We had planned to ride to Dinan today, have a look around and ride back to St Malo. But after reading LP's description, we decide we have seen enough fortified towns and medieval villages for one trip. We chill out in the evening, eating the last of our food, the emergency meal of dried mushroom ri...

Now, the main reason we arrived in England a day early, was to check out the Guy Fawkes celebrations. Unfortunately Nicola and the kiddies stayed behind as Nicola wasn’t feeling 100%. Such a bum but on the up side I did get to borrow her fabulous jacket for the celebrations! Thanks Nicola : ). We meet back up with Muzz who gives us a driving tour, after which we sto...
