| Heading home - Malvern | 2022-05-29 | We decided to break the journey home into 3 stages.
So we stopped in the Malverns - near Swan Handley.
The Swan in Swan Handley is fine pub but doesn't do food after 4pm on a Sunday. Oh well.

| Lympstone and back | 2016-12-19 | Round to Lympstone for a very nice and rather spicy tomato soup in the Swan Inn.
This ride takes me just over 500 miles since I started this regular cycling stuff back in mid October.

| Malvern | 2026-06-20 | With the news that we've sprung a leak at home, the leisurely trip home was cancelled and we left York a day early to head home. Two hundred miles is about a much as we want to do in the van in a day so we stopped at the Malvern CAMC site. While the CMACs website IT couldn't cope with us wanting to book into a CAMC site when we were supposed to be at another, the CMAC "wardens" at York and Malvern were great and we got a refund on York as we were "buying" at Malvern. Actually saved us a tenner!
The food on this Orkney and Shetland trip has been a real disappointment. Some of it due, no doubt, the the establishments we've frequented but they all seemed to offer the same bog standard pub grub menus. To the point that it has been a standing joke about having to order fish and chips and "mac and cheese". So the decent pub food at the Swan in Hanley turned out to be the best dining we had all holiday!
