When I'd heard there were wild ponies on Bodmin Moor, I really wanted to see some but thought they might be hard to track down. Luckily this morning, there were two right next to the road as we drove away from the treepod.

They were so tame and came right up to Fig and started licking his bumper and sticking their noses through the windows for cuddles.

We passed by Stonehenge as we drove towards Woking.

Tom got excited when he realised we were in the same area as most of the F1 team's headquarters, so we spun by McLaren to take a peek.

The security guards at McLaren said we should check our Mercedes-Benz World nearby which was free to visit and had four floors of cars.

The museum was filled with fancy cars, including an F1 car which had been broken up into all of it's tiny pieces. There were also simulators you could race on, so we took a break from driving to race each other.

Outside, you could watch cars race around a track and through water and Vinnie Jones was there.

We treated Fig to an air freshener from the shop and picked up some matching sunglasses to keep in the glove box before heading back up the road home.

Hunger had started to kick in by the time we reached Manchester so we decided to stop off at Lotus Vegetarian Kitchen for takeaway.

The vegan crispy beef and satay chicken sticks were exactly what we needed to keep us going for the rest of the drive and Figgy hit his 190,000 mile marker.
