Sarah and Perry finally did it! This is what we left Asia from and was it worth it! Such a cool time. We got our Bug stocked up and hit the road on the Friday. Got to Salisbury, checked into our campsite and watched the sunset. Hooked up with Sez in the evening, made her jump! She came back from the bar and didn't see us so we snuck up right behind her, she turned around and - there we were, right in her face!
Saturday came and time for the Wedding. Got a ride to Old Wardour Castle with Mike and Prisca. Got there in plenty of time and had a chance to check out the castle. It's pretty spectacular! Filmbuffs will know it from Robin Hood Prince of Thieves as Hood's castle.
Ceremony was lovely, Sarah looked stunning, and Perry didn't look to bad either!
Then back to the camping ground, a quick bite to eat, then onto the Rugby Club for the Reception. Both me and Col were so excited, we were gonna get to see Jules and Cheryll!!!! Sat down for a Pimms (ohhh! I love weddings and Pimms!) Then we saw Cheryll and Jules walking along the road (two heads was all we could see!) and ran over to them! Ahh! They looked so fab! The glamour had arrived to Salisbury! Spent the rest of the evening chatting away and getting merry to say the least. We had a bit of a dance and after the standing ovations post Col's Crab Dance it was time to leave. Think we're out of practise when it comes to drinking!
Next morning we hung out with the girlies and made our way to The Reid's for a mighty BBQ. We left at 2ish, did a tour of Salisbury, checked out the Cathedral and St Thomas Church. Lots of pretty old roads and the River Avon looked nice too!
Met a right weirdo in the Cathedral...an American doing commentary to his videoing....."This is the highest spiral in London.....oh, but we're not in London now".....Well???!! All we could do was burst out laughing, I truely hope his rellies here that when they have to sit through his video...!
Then onto STONEHENGE!!!! Cool! First impression was that I thought it'd be bigger, but when we parked up and walked over you could see how massive it really is. How did they build it?!? I was tempted to wear my "Lucia dress" (white big thing it is) which I had packed by mistake and jump around singing some pagan songs... Oh, next time : )
The rest of the drive home was a pretty wet affair... It poured down!!! Thunder and lightening too! And looooots of queues of course! I got a bit wet cos the seals aren't that good around the doors..!
A wicked weekend was had by all!
