What a way to spend my last weekend in wiltshire for a while! Huge thank you to Rosie and Speedy for organising and leading us around, even though you did make us go up AND down that horrible hill ;D
Also thank you to Alex and Maria for back marking, you kept me company on those long open roads where i struggled haha! Chris the cakes and tea went down a treat, still should have brought the dog though!
Tim, i still don't know who the hotel guy was meant to look like, and i've told the hotel to pass the bill for the window damage onto you :P
Final thank you to everybody for makign the weekend such a brilliant one, i shall certainly miss you all an aweful lot :(
P.S. sorry for nearly crashing into your bike on the way home Rosie, i was just going too fast for my own good haha
