Stratford Upon Avon, Warwickshire - 7th October 2007
It's the day after Matt and Nikki's wedding reception thrash at the Marriott Rennaissance in Solihull. On the way back, we decide to drive via the town of Stratford Upon Avon - former home of William Shakespeare, and now home to a million tourists - to have a poke about and visit a few old houses.
