Hot day

Pleased that the sunny weather has lasted for another day (& predicted for tomorrow too) we packed a picnic and drove over the moors to Widecombe on the Moor. We stopped on the way, and walked up to a tor that looked down onto the village. Good for photos, and lovely views. We even found a geo cache. In the village, we had a wander, bought a couple of bits from a craft market in the tiny village hall, and half a pint of local cider in one of the 3 pubs. In one of the shops we saw Tom Cobley's chair. It is said to be over 500 years old. I didn't take a photo as they wanted you to make a donation, and I have absolutely no cash now, as what I had has been used for car parks.

From there we drove on to a quiet spot on the moor to picnic, and relaxed for an hour or so. Mollie and Josh had gone off on their own shopping, and then to a spot on the moor to do some wild swimming. It sounded like they had a good day. By chance, we met them on our homeward journey, out on the moor.

After picking up some burgers,pork and chicken in Bovey Tracey we went home to enjoy a simple but tasty barbeque tea for 5.

The sun has zonked everyone out. I'm heading to the shower, then another evening of reading is probably on the menu!
