Off to Bristol today. Well Easton-in-Gordano to be more precise, or rather the Ramada motel as Gordano Services. I'll stay there two nights and take the bus into Bristol on Monday.

A man in Swindon has been pestering me to meet for quite some time and I said I could detour there and be with him by 12:00. As usual the sight of a specific date and time seem to have paralysed him because he has read my last message confirming that I can get to the general area then and that I will, of course, be dressed but has again failed to give me his address. It's very odd.

One of the routes suggested by abetterrouteplanner.com goes past Chipping Camden. Perhaps I should drop at Clarkson's Diddly Squat Farm Shop and see what he has to offer for lunch.

The route to Gordano from Chadlington passes not far north of Stroud so I decided to visit a café that I have only been to twice but which has become a a favourite already: Hristo's. It's a a Greek café and I'm having a galactoboureko and a good Americano. Galactoboureko is translated on the label on the counter as custard pie but that gives a completely misleading impression.

Aa far as I can tell from overhearing conversations Hristo is not just the man behind the counter but also the cook. He makes his own filo pastry.
