My newest piece of wisdom...when you still hear the terribly familiar Bristolian accent at 3pm, you definitely know you had a puncture too many!

However, both Hans (from Nottingham) and I (from Bristol) have made our way to Watford in what seemed like to endless stages way over 100km and well above 8hrs. But now we're here and after overcoming some more flats, we're positive that we'll be setting off on a successful Mission Cobblestone tomorrow morning!

We'll be updating our Blog again when we're about to leave England on Thursday... until then don't forget our justgiving site.

thanks everyone!
