Stonehenge, Windsor Castle and Sporting Hackney FC - Saturday 7 April

Stonehenge, felt more impressive than our first visit back in 1980.


The stone circles in overcast weather were an eerie sight and the stories about them are fascinating.


Alex and Al, discussing the amazing history of Stonehenge... and possibly the Raiders line up




Lunch by the River Thames in Maidenhead and then on to Windsor for a look at the Castle.


Lyn and Al at Windsor Castle


Wow, that’s some castle! Didn’t realise how large and impressive it is and how close to the town centre. Lots more photos...



Back to west London for Middlesex County Football League Grand Final where Alex’s team ‘Sporting Hackney FC Reserves’ played ‘Hillingdon Reserves’.



It was a tight 1 all contest at half time but Hillingdon with a full reserve bench (and heaps of free kicks) kicked clear to a deserved 3 - 1 win against Alex and the lads at Sporting Hackney FC. Good skills and a great atmosphere. Learned a new footy chant: ‘Who are ya?, who are ya? ‘(pointing at opposition fans). Might try to use it at the Raiders matches? Sounds like the Raiders had an excellent win on Saturday, woohoo!


Lyn, all rugged up and showing her support for Sporting Hackney FC


After the game, a late night drive in Big Bertha on skinny country roads back to Will Tree Barn in Worton

Love Al and Lyn xxx
