We saw a blenheim bomber which my Grandfather first flew in, but they didnt have baltamore which he flew in later- a little disappointing but a great collection still.
OK you get 2 spaz shots of the day today- WITH real american WWII helmets, they were heavy!
We drove on to Bishops Stortford which is a good halfway point to London. We found a hotel to stay in- quite budget at 59 pound, but we only need a bed really. Had a beer ina very old pub up the road then underneath our accomodation is an amazing italian restaurant- what a meal, deep fried, crumbed camenbert for Graeme with Calzone for main. Mine was crab cakes and a half of spaghetti carbonara and half spaghetti and meatballs. Followed by tiramisu and cheescake and a tradtional lemoncello to finish- yes we are full!
Tomorrow is the end of our English driving adventure- returning the car to Heathrow then a night at the hotel before flying off to Germany to meet Anna and Rudy :-)

Yes Duxford Museum is great.
New horizons for you now - Germany - seems ironic after being at Duxford and seeing the weapons of war, eh.
Hope you watched some football being played Dins - still wondering: rugby or soccer??!
Soccer.
Funnily enough there were lots of germans visiting Duxford while we were there
Yes well, it is 67 years since the war ended - we had a couple of go's at each other (with Germany), so hopefully we have all moved on. Drastic way to settle differences, hey.
Hope all those Germans weren't spies - haha!!
Like the spaz shots.
