Julie and Karl, Moxhull Hall, West Midlands, 19th...
The morning started brilliantly. Literally.. Then it turned to a typical autumn day, grey and wet.
Our journey was straightforward and uneventful. We had been asked in the week to link to a new site that gives up to the minute (well 3 minute old!) traffic information. We haven’t linked to any site yet that we’ve not had some experience of so we thought we best to try it out. I need say no...

Caveswall Castle looks every bit the perfect setting for a fairytale wedding and we are to play in the dungeon!!
First things first though we need to eat… The local Red Lion pub on the village square...
