Good Breakfast!
Dry day - started off cycling through very quiet Shropshire roads; distinctive architecture and unspoilt. Very hilly. Directions were good today and only got lost once! Had a coffee at a very pretty Much Wenlock and then onto Little wenlock' skirted around Telford and then through the Wrekin gap. When we stopped to check directions a walker gave us a donation of £2. As we dropped down from the Wrekin we saw the Shrewsbury Plain stretching out in front of us- a glorious sight after so many hills. At Water Upton a shopkeeper rushed out as we cycled towards his shop and gave us each a bottle of cold water and said' its people like you that make a difference'! He then ran back into his shop! One really does see human nature at its best on trips like this. Stopped at The Hermitage Guest House ,Market Drayton. The landlady was very odd! She had the central heating on - the day was hot- we asked her to turn off the radiator in our room. The next day as we left she said how lucky we were to be in the fresh air whilst she was at home -' sometimes its like a sauna in here'!
I wondered why I asked myself? She insisted on us paying in advance for our accomodation- did we look that dodgy?
However the room was fine and breakfast (yes full English) was excellent.Did 54 miles today.
