Tewkesbury

Had a very nice long weekend in Tewkesbury in the camper van, largely to see the area but also to catch up with J's bio-mum, Maureen. 

The site was right by the river, a lovely place but unfortunately with the M5 (motorway) cutting across our view, close enough to be able to read the writing on the side of the lorries. It was quite noisy, but picturesque anyway. The camper was great as usual. The only other down-side was that Otis wasn't in it with us.


Had a nice lunch at the local pub with her and then back to the site for tea and a good chat. Old photos were produced on both sides, and it made for a very interesting weekend.


On the way home, stopped off at this amazing National Trust house, where they filmed Pride and Prejudice, not the fab TV series but the still very good Keira Knightly movie. Such a great story!
