Update: Bedfordshire and Wiltshire confirmed!

Brief update on where I'm going, and when! This comes as I've definitely sorted my visit to Bedfordshire: I am visiting Mr Edgar "Smaz" Duncan in order to rummage around Bedford, where no doubt we'll be doing something amusing involving John Bunyan. Bedford is also the birthplace of the late great Ronnie Barker, so hopefully we'll find a few reminders of him kicking about the place.

I've also sorted out my visit to Wiltshire, courtesy of one of the many Emmas I know, Emma Preuss, who has kindly agreed to give me a lift from Salisbury to Stonehenge: I haven't visited either of those places before, so it should be fascinating stuff! And we'll also be popping into the rather small village of Burbage, which should make quite a peaceful change from the noisy din that is London Town.

Other than that, my trip to Hampshire and the Isle of Wight is waiting on an amber signal at present, as my "tour guide", Emma Bennett, is waiting to see if she's working or not. And the same goes for my visit of Kent, where Sarah's checking to see when she's free to show me round Royal Tunbridge Wells, and possibly Sevenoaks. So all in all, busy busy times!

And after supposedly shaking off this cold, I sneezed three times in quick succession prior to this post. Stupid man flu...
