Tis a nice road, that one. I do miss the roads around Essex and Hertfordshire: Baldock, Dunmow, Finchingfield etc. Even Gravel Lane and the road through Theydon Bois and up to Epping Forest, with, of course, High Beach to stop for tea and bacon butties, and a chat with friends. There doesn't seem to be much to compare around here in Oxfordshire, have to go a bit further afield for good ones. H's cafe isn't a patch on High Beach, even though it's a proper cafe. Maybe it's because I don't know anyone there. But it was so easy to get chatting to folks at the Beach, seemingly not so at H's. Looking forward to Carlisle, and a mix of city and countryside again.
