We can do both as London is always a great stopover.
I have just spent a fortune getting tickets for the Paralympics for everyone in London..Near me is Stoke Mandeville where the games first happened so we will pay a visit and on the way we will see Chequers where the PM's resides in the country.
If we are not too tired we can visit the Roald Dhal Museum in Great Missenden. ;D

Love it . I want to go everywhere.  Never knew Roald Dahl had his own museum. Loved his wife Patricia Neal. Interesting family.

What fun.

CC you seem to have it all sorted.
I sat near Gert in business class on the way from Vancouver, what a good time we had.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Busy day and we all had a cup of tea and a piece of buttered Lager Loaf. :)

Loved the Lager Loaf CC. I have added  A Stilton and Leek Bread and Butter Bake recipe  for England.

Is everyone bored with this thread or shall we carry on?

I fancy  going somewhere new today. I do remember Spain and Portugal were on the list. Which will it be?

Keep travelling Gretchen.  Bron has put quite a few Spanish recipes on here so perhaps we can just bump our favourite recipe of hers if we go to Spain.

I've been a bit neglectful of this post, sorry. I will be into damper, burnt sausages and spuds in the ashes next week.
