The Retirement Thread

[Dirk]

@Dirk, heading south from Braunton, can you recommend a decent site, close to or easy access to a beach?

Er, your last picture, snowing? Where is that?

I'm currently near Boscastle.

Broadsands and Crow Point are good for doggie walks.
Take the road around the Braunton marshes and turn off onto the Toll road (£2). Car park about a mile down the road. Walk along Broadsands beach up to Crow Point, turn right along the next beach for about 1/2 mile then turn right to pick up the Boardwalk back to the car park. Nice walk back through the Burrows.

Failing that, you would have to go around the estuary to Northampton Burrows or Westward Ho!

Edit: Sorry - did you mean a camp site? Think I misunderstood your question.

Yep, camp site, probably further south. Not a great fan of Westwood Ho! tbh.

Are you a Caravan & Motorhome Club member?
There's some decent sites near Bideford and Hartland.
How far South do you want to go?

Spending my beer money. Fitted disc and pads to a friends car. Then a couple of hours in the garden. A walk up the town to deposit a cheque. Stopped at our local on the way home.
Life is good. And the sun is still out. Feeling pretty warm. Might have to have another beer. The postman also delivered a stem for the fixie.

So did you dive back into bed then?

 

[172traindriver]

Good morning. bright and sunny here, I've got a line full of sheets outblowing in the breeze.

Hope none of them decided to go for a flying lesson?

Did that happen whilst you were having a sleep?

No. I did not go back to bed..

Did that happen whilst you were having a sleep?

Again no. I was wide awake.
