I seem to have done quite a few miles and quite a few county borders today. Let’s see…
Cambridgeshire
Huntingdonshire (half a real one!)
Northamptonshire
Buckinghamshire
Oxfordshire (when do you use Oxon. i’ve often wondered?)
Northamptonshire again
Derbyshire
Leicestershire
Rutland (half a real one!)
Lincolnshire
Cambridgeshire again.
Beautiful moonlit night though and a gorgeous wintery day. Perfect for driving and for the distribution/collection of daughters.
Oxon – on envelopes, generally!
Trying to work when you went through Bucks? Glad you’re back safe.
You’d use Oxon whenever you’d use cambs, Hunts, Northants, Bucks, Derbs * , Leics, Lincs etc 😉
* – yeah, I made that up. What do you shorten Derbyshire to?
I was quite impressed to go through Northamptionshire today, wasn’t expecting that.
Northamptionshire, lol!
Derbs 🙂
Derbs just sounds silly though, doesn’t it!
Wow, sounds like a busy but lovely day, I love it when I get the chance to travel like that.
lol, yeah, sounds too silly 😆 What about Ruts? Is that real too?
Giggle, no, i think the people of Rutland are too posh. Mind you, while i think a person from Cambs can say Derbs sounds silly, i’m not at all sure a person from Berks can! 😉
Lol, and reading this I think I’m glad I live in Devon! don’t go trying to shorten that one!
