Today, the Olympic Torch came to our village, well just about. Weston Turville Parish is on the east side of Wendover Road before the route turns towards Stoke Mandeville. It took me twenty minutes to walk to that corner (x marks the spot), and I met up with Alison who came by bike.
After the initial motorcade, we had a good view as the torch went past.
There were lots of people lining the route, especially at the corner roundabout where the torch changed hands. Appropriately, a torchbearer in a wheelchair took over for the first leg into Stoke Mandeville.
