… stopping for lunch at a familiar place, Café Craycombe at Fladbury.
I chose a coronation chicken sandwich which was delicious. Mr C’s choice arrived as a sandwich rather than the baguette that he had ordered. This was swiftly replaced.
We parked in the long stay carpark which involves a short walk into the village. We couldn’t resist visiting the ‘Man Cave’ with its eclectic range of stock. I was quite taken with the model of a police telephone box reminding me of the Tardis in Dr Who but neither of us were tempted to make a purchase.
Mr C was disappointed to find that the cookshop was closed for the day with a sign on the door stating ‘sorry for any inconvenience’!
We visited the Broadway Museum and Art Gallery which is housed in a delightful old building, Tudor House. After visiting the museum Mr C encountered his third disappointment of the day… Stopping for liquid refreshments at a nearby tearoom Mr C chose a vanilla milkshake. He took a sip only to find that is was banana flavoured, one of the few food tastes he does not like. This too was quickly replaced.
By now it was time to return to the car and set off homeward. We intended to enjoy ‘fine dining’ on the patio but heavy traffic slowed us down so we dined in a local restaurant, The Water Rat instead.
