Another quiet day around Padstow - 4th Dec ‘19

The day started with a trip to the local surgery for me to get my hands on some antibiotics! It was an hour wait but at least I got them and, guess what, as I’m over 60 there was no £9 charge! Result.

By the time we were out of the surgery it was time for lunch - and we’d missed breakfast! As we were in St Columb it was only a quick journey to the big M&S. So we lunched at their cafe. It really is the biggest most modern M&S I’ve ever seen and it’s right out in the middle of no where -weird?

Another gorgeous sunny day - the 3rd day in a row. After yesterday’s big journey we didn’t want to go too far so we just went back to Padstow.

We had a very pleasant walk around and then caught the ferry over to Rock. The tide was out meaning that we had to take a detour around the Doom Bar.

We grabbed a coffee and then walked along the beach to find a Rock rock to sit on! When the tide is out the beach is huge - perfect for dogs.

Kim noticed yesterday that there are a lot of Spaniels down here and as if to confirm her observation about 80% of the dogs we saw were some sort of Spaniel.

We caught the last but one ferry home (about 4). We walked through all the frenzied activity as all the vendors were getting ready for tomorrow’s Christmas Festival.

When we got back to Brunnehilda I had a go at levelling her up again to see if we can stop the water in the shower issue. Fingers crossed, it seems to be better!!

We both weren’t feeling too hungry so we just had cereal and headed for bed. We watched a couple of episodes of an Australian comedy series called Please Like Me - we didn’t!!
