Day 46 30/6/16 Warrington to Leicester

Day 46: Warrington to Leicester (UK)


Today was our last day with the Speed 20.  She was going home today.

The sun came out ..surprise, surprise!  We spent the early morning washing and cleaning out the car, with Normans help, then we were off to return the car.

Clean up before returning the car to David and Kaye

Peoples Choice award which we won at AOC Alvis International (Norman collected it as we had already gone)

Peoples choice trophy and mug - very impressive trophy and totally unexpected.

All spiffed up and ready to go home...


Our first problem was when we entered the M6 and it stopped.  Fortunately we only had to go a couple of miles before turning off onto the A49.


Leaving down Brook Lane in Warrington
We had decided to go vie the Shire Horse exhibition at Tarporley on the way.  Had an excellent visit, light lunch, then off to David and Kaye’s to return the Speed 20.

Fittingly, Maritte fits in the "thoroughbred" class

Shire horses - mare with seven week old foal.

Feeding time for the Polecats

Even had chickens!

Shire horse - young stallion

Otters

Scottish wildcat - an endangered species.

Pheasant.

Friendly cat shares a moment on the cafe deck.

Another hold up for roadworks on the A51 but we got to D&K’s at 4pm, perfect timing as they had just arrived home from shopping.

Almost home for the Speed 20.
