After a quick once over of the Astir trailer and rapid number plate fixing we set off booted and spurred from Tibenham to Talgarth.
A quick phone call from Co-pilot Grieve to Wing man Magnani gave us a rendezvous at the BP garage on the A14 after Newmarket. 2nd Lt Highton was delayed due to shower trouble with his No.2 but they eventually caught up with us at an in-flight refuelling stop just before Corby.
The rest of the journey was interspersed with 4x4 and caravan chicanes and a emergency overshoot and left turn manoeuvre by Toerag Highton.
We arrived more or less on schedule at 18.20 parked up the trailers at Talgarth and hit the accommodation. That evening we dined at the newly opened Thai Restaurant in Talgarth - The New Inn. Highly recommended.
