There is a hashtag and it’s #mm15. The good news is that just like last year, the Spring has arrived and the sun is shining. Bedwas to Strensham, Strensham to Ashby de la Zouch and the local Tesco for petrol and Full English. Then on to Hucknall for lunch, ale and an overnight in the local Premier Inn.
