Sure do. Spanish penitants, I think, from a long standing event, on Ash Wednesday? Was just thinking it might confuse the Protestants, given that it was 5th November, and I did not want any Catholics on the b-b-q.
Anyway, pleased to report that the pitchfork and burning torches were no where to be seen when we arrived at Oxford. Not sure it was health and safety ("have you an operators licence for that agricultural machinery?") or the shocking price inflation of medieval light sources. Shame we did not meet FOB, and the rest of the local crew, but a brilliant ride all the same.
I have passed on the thanks of us all to Paul, and urged him to join the forum. His contribution yesterday was immence, and a great relief to have such a superb pathfinder in the vanguard.
Gentlemen, as ever thanks for your company, your humour, and for creating an excuse to see the splendid Autumn hues of this country's glorious countryside.
