On my way to the Hellfire caves (yes its a real thing and you can explore) on my motorbike today I came across a new cafe nearby.


I had a cream tea as its coming to the end of the summer.

One of the staff from Thailand a girl called Tan-ya (I think it was) was telling me about her country and the warm winters 30c and mountains near where she's from.

Now if I could get my bike out there I wouldnt have to endure another wet winter in England 😇

This 86 is fast becoming my go to bike knife,which is why I bought it as it’s stainless.


Oh and the cream tea was delicious.😁


"Hellfire Caves, which were tunneled into the earth here in the 18th century at the behest of local landowner Francis Dashwood. This rural idyll, nestled in the Chiltern Hills in a well-to-do corner of England, seems an unlikely setting for British members of parliament to engage in blasphemous mock-religious rituals and bacchanalian orgies. But that is exactly what was on the menu for the Hellfire Club, a society of blue-blooded rakes who gathered here in the mid-18th century.

Their number included the cream of society: among the members listed on a plaque in the caves were a dozen MPs, the First Lord of the Admiralty, the son of the Archbishop of Canterbury, and a certain Benjamin Franklin, who spent many years from the 1750s–1770s in London, originally as a representative of the Pennsylvania Assembly. Dashwood himself, the group’s leader, was the Chancellor of the Exchequer–the second most powerful political figure in Britain."

Nothings changed then 🤣🤣🤣























 
Awesome photo. Where was it taken, if you don't mind my asking
That one was taken at a rest stop on I-10 this morning, on the West Louisiana state line. They have a very nice rest area there with some nature trails and some free coffee. Was a good break in an otherwise long and boring drive.
