      Afternoon in Wooler

      August 25, 2019 in England ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

      After a cup of tea and a lovely lunch of egg rolls we set off on shortish walk around the surrounding countryside of Wooler. It was really very hot so we took it easy and stopped to admire the view on a regular basis. I only lost my phone once, but luckily didn't have to retrace our steps too far to find it. Actually we didn't need to retrace our steps at all, but we didn't realise that at the time. Long story, you really needed to be there.

      On return to the village we all felt it was necessary to check out the beer garden of one of the pubs in the village that Judith hadn't yet tried, and test the beverages on offer. We can report the cider was refreshing, but the beer garden was more of a courtyard and unfortunately a little smokey.

      Judith then taught and beat us at a game of Qwerkle before dinner, then a pleasant evening stroll up the hill to watch the sunset.

      Day 3

      August 25, 2019 in England ⋅ ⛅ 24 °C

      We had a good night sleep and Judi gave us cereals and freshly made bread for breakfast before we set off again about 9:00 for Wooler. We filled up with petrol in the village before heading up the A1m. We were planning to take a more scenic route further east, but decided to get to Judith's as quickly as we could. The roads were clear all the way, and the weather was slightly cooler than yesterday and a hazy sunshine so it was actually a really pleasant ride. We stopped again at Washington services to fill up again (97 miles, 7.4l @ 156.9p and I thought yesterday was expensive!)

      It was just another hour to Wooler, the last 40 minutes or so along gorgeous wide open roads, unfortunately following a car doing 55 mph everytime it came to a bend or a hill until there was somewhere to overtake when it sped back up to 60!

      We arrived in Wooler at 12:00 after a short day's riding of 140 miles.
