We are OK 🙂

Thank you to those who were concerned that we had been captured by aliens (because the blog went silent).

As it happens, we didn't think telling you about helping Katie in her garden, clearing out their shed and going to the local supermarket and pub was worthwhile reporting.

It has however been a very relaxing week for us. 👍

Today was a little more interesting though. 

Marie and Katie went off on a girls shopping day to pass through the likes of Selfridges, Harrods, Fortnum & Mason and everything shiny in the neighborhood. 

Meanwhile, Michael headed off the Milton Keynes for a Red Bull Factory tour (Formula 1 facility). It was an excellent choice.

I had thought it might just be ushering us through a few curated 'show off' rooms, but no, they took us through many of the work zones. 

Yes, I have some photos, but not from any of those secretive work spaces!
One of Daniel Riccardo's cars
Show off early and winning cars.
One wall in the trophy room (426 trophies).
Old cars, still available to attend car events etc.
Super light weight helmets. Why can we buy them this light!?

The pricing was about the same as attending a race weekend but in this case it was better for me because you can't do this anywhere else. Apparently Red Bull is the only team to offer such access for fans.

We will spend the weekend with K+N before heading off on our 'grand tour' of the stars pubs, the Cotswolds, Oxford and Silverstone (and maybe Windsor if time allows).
