Jon in the Morgan at Northcote Manor
So, the day after the mudfest, we went down to Devon. George and Caroline were lending us their Morgan as a wedding pressie, so we'd booked a gorgous hotel, Northcote Manor in Umberleigh, to go with it. We stayed with George and Caroline on Monday and met their new arrival, Edward - Jon's god-son - who is gorgeous (just as his sisters are).

After being taught how to get the roof up and down, etc we were ready for the off. As you can see from the photo it's a beautiful car and looked great at the hotel and National Trust houses we took it to. There are lots more pictures on the link to our photo album on the right of the screen. The weather was awful again so we didn't manage to take the roof down until we were taking it back to its owners. The hotel was absolutely fantastic and the food was wonderful. We'll be saving up to try to go back next year.

Stopped off at the Haynes Motor Museum in Sparkford on the way back at the end of the week. It was great and we spent hours there. Could hardly drag Jon away.
