Today we decided as it was our only free day of the week, we would take the opportunity to go out for lunch and a walk.
We decided on Bosham in West Sussex. When we set off it started to rain, and fort the whole journey the motorways were pretty grim, mostly with spray from the lorries. Imagine our surprise to see on the M27 a very slow moving escorted low loader carrying a brand new railway carriage. It was.unlike usual rolling stock, it looked more stream lined. We speculated that it might have been a new cross rail train.
Once we got to Bosham the sun shone, we had an excellent lunch in the village pub, and then explored the quay, and the lovely properties around there. The church is very old , believed to have been a sight of Christian worship for 1000 years, and mentioned in the Bayeux Tapestry.
We found a few dream houses, and both did some photography.
On our return trip home on the motorway we saw a large escorted low loader with a beautiful sailing yacht, from the admirals fleet being transported to we know not where. We speculated that anyone who could afford such a thing, could probably send it on a journey on the motorway just for the hell of it.
Well it just goes to show that the motorways of Great Britain do not restrict themselves to wheeled vehicles.
