Wednesday evening saw us back on the road to Croydon. The weather has started to warm up a bit, even so, the wind is a bit cold!!
Thursday afternoon, Roger and I had to go to the bank to pick up the new cash cards that I had ordered a week before. Only problem was that the old pin numbers no longer work and they had to order new pin numbers - another week!
Did a quick look at a couple of shops in the Whitgift Centre and Roger bought some DVD sets while I checked out the card making magazines in WH Smith.
Day 16
Picked up a KA car from the car rental at Elmers End and headed to Wantage via the M25, M4 and a few little villages on the B4494. Stopped at a village called Thackton for a coffee and found that we couldn't lock the passenger side door. Ended up ringing the car rental place to find out what to do! You would think it would be written in the car handbook!!!
Arrived about 3 pm at Wantage. It is a smallish market town in Oxfordshire, about 20 miles from Oxford. Checked in at the Regis Guest house to a warm welcome from Millie and a nice cup of tea and fresh blueberry muffin. Went for a drive into the town centre, found a car park and went for a short walk. Found the Stamp Attic where we are meeting tomorrow and had a sneaky look around the shop. Looking forward to meeting up with Zoe, Sue, Carol and Lucy tomorrow morning.
