Another brilliant day wandering the countryside. We headed to another National Trust House - "Baddesley Clinton" - a brilliant old house with priest hides, raunchy stories, murder mysteries and a backdrop for a Sherlock Holmes movie, a moat, gorgeous gardens, espalier flowering quince and ducks and squirrels abounding. Very enjoyable - history at its best.

We finished around 1 and thought we'd head to Stratford upon Avon for lunch. A return call to "Box Brownie" another great coffee and a walk by the river, more Tudor houses, gardens, trendy shops, churches and cafes.

Home via Sainsburys to shop for tea. Picked up petrol for $2.50 a litre ready for more adventures tomorrow.
