Depending on the survey today then Ray would have had the last trip on The Maisibert.

On our travels to our next destination we stopped off at the Squire & Horse for lunch with Hilary's cousin Colin and his wife Helen.

The last couple of days we have spent with Dianne and Peter where we visited the beach and a Noodle Bar in the evening and then the following day we saw the Roman Ruins in Dorchester.

We returned to Bude today without the dogs so we could have a look around the town first we visited Bude Castle where we saw the history of GCHQ we drove past the real dishes yesterday, tonight we have Cornish Pasties for tea.

As the dogs had been left at the cottage the last couple of days so today we took them to Sandymouth Bay for a run and then back to the cottage.

The dogs have enjoyed their stay this is despite being left the last couple of days.

After saying our goodbyes to Elaine and Colin we visited Westward Hoe to check out the beach for the dogs tomorrow but think it might be a bit rough for them.

We met Elaine and Colin from Torquay at Bideford Quay today for a long overdue catch up.

Today we went to Barnstaple because Hilary's Great Grandfather was a vicar there as we had no information a phone call was made to her cousin who gave us a place name.

A bit of Google research gave us the Facebook page for the Church which I requested if anyone had any information and they supplied a list of vicars that had been there and on which he was listed being there in 1911.

Later this afternoon we travelled to Hartland Quay, it seems this area has one major road the A39 the rest are single track roads where we met several tractors and obviousally it is muck spreading season.

First port of call today was Clovelly which is a fishing village which is owned by one family where all the homes are rented out, because of the cobbled streets everything is delivered to the properties by donkey's pulling sledges.
