It's difficult to believe that this morning we were in West London, and now we're in Cambridgeshire! We're eating up those good old English counties, with 97 miles cycled today! The support crew have really looked after us well (again) and the fundraising has continued apace with something in excess of £600 collected at Tesco in Huntingdon. The locals have graciously dug deep and we're still counting! A big thanks to the store manager (Andrew Davies) for allowing Azzy to talk him into it!
On the Force Development front, we had a great day...visiting three locations with 56 Sqn connections: Hendon, North Weald and Duxford. Whilst at North Weald, we were honoured to lay a wreath at the Hurricane memorial site. The local historian, Arthur Moreton, would not let us take home our 56 Sqn Hurricane unfortunately!
The Imperial War Museum at Duxford welcomed us with open arms (and free ice creams - thanks Connie!) and allowed us a photo opportunity with their Gloster Meteor resplendent in 56 Sqn colours.
BREAKING NEWS: Total collected today - £942. Wow!!!
