    Haha! Great ride! 🧐 I had this idea the day although slightly different:
    April 11th 2021 - Set off from our home in Shropshire and ride the 330 mile non-stop round trip to/from Barnard Castle (just outside Durham) to test our eyes. Arrive at Barnard Castle in the dark (thus not being able to see it) then head home for the night shift!
    April 12th - Arrive home in the morning to celebrate Mary Cummings’ birthday.

    This was well worth waiting for! I literally didn't put two and two together when I saw the title. I thought this would be just a ride to the opticians. Ahh well, not the most exciting of videos I thought! How wrong I was. Should have realized it would be more than just that. Another entertaining and light hearted video from another great idea. You were right Cameron some of us at this time need a little more of this light hearted stuff, keep bringing them on! BTW the end when you have your result...pure genius. 😂👍🚴

      But why did he then not just say that instead of telling that completely absurd story? Had he just said, he had a meeting at that plant, it would make sense - as a goverment advisor he after all should help search for solutions to the crisis, and manifacturing vaccines is a big part of that.
      I dont think that is true, to be honest. I think all he said is just a bunch of absurd lies. Driving (!) to get your eyes tested... I think he just was there for leisure, and invented that story afterwards.
