Yatton to Worcester.
Always a long day at 150km (96 miles), but manageable without the relentless climbing of Cornwall and Devon.
We left on time and made very good progress through Bristol and beyond thanks to the prevailing south-wester that was blowing, and bringing in a substantial storm front at the same time.
The miles zipped by and before we knew it we were in Gloucester, and a bit like Dr Foster, arrived in a shower of rain. We sat if out by having lunch under cover then proceeded on our way.
Gloucestershire gave way to Worcestershire, and with it a few more hills. But, the target was in sight and we homed in on the accommodation for the night, and not a moment too soon.
Paddy and I were toasted, Jill was leading well, but we were all very tired.
Dinner, fed and watered, we're done for today.
Another big day tomorrow - eeek.
