We left our house in Devon at about 11.30 and travelled east. After taking on some (comparatively) cheap diesel at Trago Mills we travelled on the M5 and M4. We stopped off at an M4 Services for a M&S cream cake and a cup of tea in the van. We then parked for the day at this gravel area on The Fosse Way near Malmsbury, Wiltshire.
The Fosse Way was a Roman Road which ran from Exeter to Lincoln, a distance of about 250 miles (400 kilometres).
This is a very rural spot but it does have a post box!
We have an impressive patch of nettles just outside our side door.
We set off for a ride/walk along the Fosse Way.
After a mile (1.6 kilometres) or so The Fosse Way reverted to a public road so we turned round and headed back towards our parking place.
We saw these very clean looking sheep along the way.
Today we travelled 133 miles (214 kilometres). We are at: N51.5579 W2.1864
