    Last day so last opportunity to get some countryside snd experience a quaint old village. I chose Great Missenden because nobody else would. Home of Roald Dahl and other well known folk! There’s a photo of Roald’s latest dwelling. The old Abbey has been converted to a Conference Facility and the Church looks well used by the community - not sure about services though! It dates back to 1400. The countryside is definitely stunning. Even in London, the plentiful number of huge, ancient trees - so many Oaks and some lovely parks. The village was closed (perfect) and school was just starting to come out when I left so suddenly there were more people about. Back on the train and … to Germany tomorrow.Read more
