Stu

David the driver was very prompt, and drove the 6 of us from the TAJ in London to Blenham, then to Oxford. His driving was exemplary. Our one negative comment was that he was very quiet on the drive, and we felt we never got a good explanation of the sights we were passing nor the history. We had to ask questions to get explanations, rather than them being forthcoming from him.
