Droitwich, United Kingdom

I've got a strange feeling that I've not had for a while, a certain serenity; an sense of, for once, know what I'm doing.  This is decidedly unexpected because, for the first time in quite a while I actually have very little idea what I'm doing.  ...

Bikes and kit are ready in the minibus. All we have to do now is be at Droitwich Spa Fire Station and Urban Search and Rescue Station for 4:45 in the morning. We then drive down to London for an 8 oclock start. Then the fun begins.
