5th May Last night we stayed at Berrington Hall which was lovely, Angela and Jim supplied us with a lovely big green paddock for the ponies and supplied us with great hospitality, food, warmth, toilets and the bath room which was lovely. Abi set off with Karl & Basil to do the first 12 miles. Jane went to get her car fixed...juttering cant be good. Then Trish set off with Pip, Archie & Felix to do a further 12 miles. When william herd Basil come back he got soo excited and started jumping and larking around in the lorry....smashed a window in the procces, clipping Karl, John & Angie on the way down. The lorry had a funny 5 so Karl said lets get on and sort it whilst we had a couple hours, so out came tech trucks but they didn't have a new alternator to put on, so attached a cable to get it going when it needs to be started but said they'll get a new alternator & fix it in the morning along with the tyre which had picked up a nail somewhere along the lines... William was checked over and was good to go so, Angie, Trish & William to finish with a 20 miler (not intentionally but lorry was not there due to still being fixed so the just plodded on, William wasn't worried so just tickled away at the miles...still bouncing around looking for the chocolate gingers afterwards (his favourites). He passed Hereford football stadium...obviously a goal must have been scored the supporters were hollering and shouting, banging on the back of the stadium and did he care? No. Horses galloping up the side of the field next to him, did it faze him? No.
