Hi guys
We stayed in the very picturesque Saxon village of Cricklade for this years Air Tattoo.A gorgeous little place and also the first built up area on the River Thames.
Beautiful but not always quiet!
On our first night there was quite an argument went on outside the hotel which resulted in someone getting knocked off a pushbike by a car.Night 2 I was just lying on the bed with my mp3 player blaring away when I noticed a flashing light on the ceiling.I looked outside to see utter chaos.There was at least 5 fire engines up the full length of the street.Police everywhere,fire guys with video cameras,ambulance-the full works.On the other side of the road just down from the hotel smoke was billowing from the front of a building.The guy who had got run over the night before had somehow managed to set his flat on fire.The last I saw of him was when he got carted into the back of the ambulance on a stretcher.It all happens in cricklade!
