To the ‘old’ country for a special wedding

September 30, 2019

B and I flew to the UK last week to attend the wedding of my daughter. BA flies direct to Heathrow from San Diego, so that is good.

We stayed in pubs for the whole trip, and whilst expensive, it was a refreshing change from dreary hotels. The first one we stayed in, the Ostrich at Colnbrook dates back to 1106, and has a ghoulish history of murder of folks who stayed here. The full English breakfast included in the price was yummy.

On day 2, we toured the Bluebell railway, which was OK.

Staying overnight at the The Wheatsheaf Pub in Cuckfield, Sussex, we enjoyed a relaxed evening meal.

Next day we headed west along narrow country roads to our next destination, The Angel Inn at Hindon, Wiltshire:

where we chilled for a while until the next day which was Alice’s wedding. A most joyous event at The Gathering Barn at Monkton Deverill.

We don’t have photos of the wedding, but it was a most lovely event to be part of.
