It is nearly 40miles to MK Dons but the thought of escaping the M25 and London spurred me on. The penguin getting back to his proper environment sprang to mind! The strong wind sometimes helped and sometimes hindered but after stopping for a sandwich near Leighton Buzzard I arrived at the National Hockey Stadium at about 3pm. I found the press officer upstairs and we waited for the local press photographer to arrive. The Press Officer had to take a call from manager Martin Allen while we waited. I thought how young he was them realised how old I was! They presented me with a signed shirt and we had photos taken by the model cows. After a cup of coffee I made my way to my stay in Mursley. My GPS got confused by new building work but I found my way to a fabulous self contained apartment for the night.
