Beautiful Exmoor National Park, stayed at Exford, the middle of the park last night & had the chance to roam the moors looking at the wildlife. As you can see the "hippy" cows didn't worry about us but couldn't get close or get a good photo of the deer that were roaming on the horizon. It's mating season for them so apparently it's not good to get too close, as one woman was attacked recently. These bucks are randy as they only get one chance a year to mate ...

Another winding road up to the coast. Bobs having a great time driving like he's in a rally, you can legally do up to 60mph on these narrow roads. We were lucky to be in Minehead for the Autumn Steam Gala. It runs for 4 days & they had about 7 steam engines all spit polished. The train line runs down to the esplanade which must have been nice to arrive for a seaside holiday from the city. It was a very hot day, blokes walking around with no shirts on, real...

Had a lovely ploughmans lunch at the little Cream Tea cafe in the Pannier Markets. Missed the big antiques one that is on Wednesdays! Lovely hotel with a gym & 2 pools (no togs ) which would have been good considering they are having a heat wave here. Went on the stepper which made me feel good. This is a dangerous country. The cream teas( scones, jam & cream) are to die for. The Cornish pasties, pies & cheeses from the healthiest looking livestock ...

This is a busy little fishing village bulging with tourists, I've realised the good thing about pay n display is that if you wait you'll get one even in the busiest of places. We just hung around the harbour watching families fishing. We saw 2 crabs caught on a line. It was a beautiful day, very hot so everybody was out. Was having a look at all the shops when I spotted another Rick Stein shop. Gently encouraging Bob in the door saying we are lucky to have a seco...

Had to go through Penzace Karen but didn't see any pirates. At least not like the Iona boys. The pirates here are the councils charging £5 for parking at the tip of Lands End, so you know us, we drove on. We spent our pounds in the 1st & last pub in England. It was funny when we walked in the door as it was full of dark people, I thought we were in the wrong country. A bus load from Nottadam but not sure where that is but they conceded we were from further ...
