Epping forest

The trip across the country by bus from Coventry to Stanstead was much more interesting than yesterday's. The countryside gently rolls and the bus took more secondary roads past farms and villages. Plus the weather was warmer and there was no rain.

Ro picked us up for the half hour drive to Pat and Indra's which was very nice of her. They have all gone off to Tamra's junior school concert. Tamra has a solo to perform. Jo went to bed shortly after we arrived and is still sound asleep. His "cold" seems better but two nights sitting up have exhausted him.

Indra and I went for a short walk in Epping Forest which is looking green but is very dry underfoot. What was mud is now rock hard. Here they have perfected drainage of rainfall and when no rain falls then everything dries out very quickly.
