I didn’t wake up until 7, which is good for me as I have still been on Cyprus time. Marion, Mal and I had some breakfast and then took a drive to Chiltern Woodland Burials, which is where Bryan’s ashes are. Marion had told us all about it. I know people don’t like talking about dying but this is the ideal place to end up! It is a woodland area, so you can go for a walk in the woods and then visit the ‘spot’. There is also a little place where you can have a cup of tea mid wander. It was beautiful there. I did let the side down a bit by having a “blub” when I saw Bryan’s resting place but the walk around the woods was lovely.Julie my niece was on her way home from work and she drives past it, so she called in and had a walk with us. I was very impressed.

Back to Marion’s house for some lunch, She has some lovely flowers in her garden, although she says because of the bad weather here in the UK, things are later than usual flowering. But her Lilly of the Valley has just started flowering, just in time, as it has always flowered for my birthday.

We then started packing up again, for the last leg of this journey, back to the caravan, 600 miles so far! I can’t say I enjoy living out of a suitcase, so it was nice to get back and unpack everything in the caravan. John, in the caravan opposite us had kindly put all the post into our van so Mal can start work straight away as otherwise the office is closed until Thursday morning and Mal has deadlines for samples.
