The hunt begins

Well I managed to get into Bath and pick up some new shoes with only a few hiccups.
First was the fact that the family were a bit dubious about walking the streets with me while wearing thongs and socks.
Also it was raining so negotiating steep wet concrete paths was a bit hairy as I skated along trying very hard not to fall over.
We picked up a few essentials and had a look around some of the sights before heading back to Bradford On Avon to a wonderful warm meal and to study the classifieds in search for our new home/campervan.
We were to search for a campervan on Tuesday but as soon as we found out parts of Harry Potter were filmed just a few miles away in an old village called Lacock, we decided to treat the children, so off we were to Lacock.
Lacock is a beautiful old village that has been preserved as it was 400 years ago and is now used for filming many period dramas. When entering the town there is no sign of light posts or tv aerials and very little signage which must be removable.
Lunch was at one of England’s many pubs with a quaint name, it was called the dog wheel.
The Dog Wheel was so called as it has an open fire with a rotisserie powered by a dog treadmill, I am sure that it would not be legal to use dog power nowadays.
Cointha and Daniel were rapt to see several places of interest from the Harry Potter movies and where the moonlight seen was filmed recently for the upcoming movie.
Unfortunately the Abbey was closed for Winter so we will visit there on our return in August.
The afternoon saw us travel 2 hours west through an amazing gorge into the town of Cheddar in our pursuit for a camper.
Proving to be a fruitless trip as we only managed to view 1 van and the yard was closed so we will be out again tomorrow.
