Day 11 - Drookit at Bucknell

A shortish day overall, which was a welcome change. Set off towards Whitchurch as fast as I could, just incase Nick and the guys (http://www.jogle.eu/) had slept in or had a bacon stop. Their day yesterday was a lot worse than mine, since they didnt finish untill 10:30 last night. Unfortunetly I didnt catch them.
Chose the A49 again today instead of the lanes. Still didnt see much as the countryside is quite flat and the rain came down in buckets for most of the day, hence drookit in the title. Saw a sign for a village fayre advertising the Wurzels. Are they still going?
Got to Bucknell early and ate at the Baron of Beef, a great country pub. Obviously I had cow.
