Glorious morning, blue sky, but windy. I passed a bookshop and there is no doubt what the locals are doing on their spare time.

I have seen them everywhere. In proper lycras.

The fields are bleak. Whatever eco-system existed must by now be non-existant. I saw a couple of hares running away from me. Two falcons in the sky. Ther may be some life in the few bushes.

I was pleased to see a proper energy plantation of fast growing willow.

I was late booking ahead and my planned hotel in an ideal start tomorrow was FULL. I spent 30 minute in the field trying to find another that did not cost too much. Booked it because it was near the town centre. But it was near on the wrong side, so I had to walk extra distance. Then I cam across this memorial.

Well, I had no choice DETERMINATION. It was along day. Tomorrow the temperature will hit 26 deg. C. Yes, I have suncream.
