I am in Princes Risborough at Jennifer's new house. It is really gorgeous, it's huge with a beautiful kitchen looking onto the large garden. The garden stretches way back to a games hut which is great for the boys. The location is great too; as short walk from the pretty centre of Princes Risborough and near a park, leisure centre and supermarket. They are right on the edge of the countryside too; from the house it is just a few minutes to a path leading to the Ridgeway Walk. This is an 87 mile national trail through southern central England, which has been used by travellers, herdsmen and soldiers since prehistoric times because the high dry ground made travel easy and let travellers see any potential attackers.
We had lunch at the Plough at Cadston (mildly well known for being the pub near Chequers where the Camerons famously and accidentally left their daughter behind after a family lunch.) After a delicious lunch in lovely surroundings - it was originally an old staging post on a road to London - we walked up to the ridge of the Ridgeway. The views from the top were magnificent on this fine autumn afternoon. Right in front of us was Princes Risborough and beyond that countryside stretching into the distance. We are now setting off for our hotel near Warwick.
