YES MAN .. so jump a flight with my youngest, hire a car, stop off for lunch in the Clare Valley, there was no accommodation Sat in Quorn so head to Peterborough and do the Light and Sound show .. Sunday rock into Quorn ... awesome Coffee Pot is an amazing train .. and a bonus behind the W for a 2.5 hr trip followed by workshop tours being shuttled by the Coffee Pot. Some snaps for you
