Hi all.

I checked out my route yesterday an all is well. Apart from a few Sunday drivers it was a good run. Special mention has to go to the old couple doing 15-20 mph through Much Wenlock, then a whopping 34 on the 60mph road to ironbridge. Nice. Nearly went into the verge when I went past them he he

Also cleared things with the malthouse. They start doing food from 12 through till 2:20. Menu is below. Its a bit pricey, not your usual pub menu, which is a shame (maybe?), but the burger I had there yesterday was top

If the prices are over the top let me know and I'll look for an alternative pub.

List if peeps so far then...
