I have found a wireless connection, heehee.
I'm in Glastonbury and it's been a good day. The drive over was reasonably pleasant, a bit of traffic to St. Neots and some stoppage later on but all in all it was plain sailing. After an involuntary circuit of Glasto (the first and only time I got lost) I found Silver St. but nobody was home at the B&B! A phonecall determined that the landlady had to go out and would be back in half an hour. Well, it was more than that so I finally checked in at 5, dropped my bags and headed up to the Tor. The later afternoon sun provided perfect light as I climbed up the rather steep slope. A bit hazy but good views all round. Well worth the effort. By the time I came down I was starving so walked around town until I found a place called Hawthorne's where I had a reasonable pan fried trout in caper butter and a gorgeous ginger&apple pudding with ice cream, all washed down with a pint of local cider that went straight to my legs. I had originally wanted to go to another pub afterwards but I was just feeling tired so I went to my room.
I'm now watching The Apprentice while looking at today's photos, then I'll have a shower, watch Dexter and then I'll go to bed. Early night needed for more tourism tomorrow but at least I don't have far to drive.
holiday,
