If I'd known you were there I would have popped in and said hello, I passed Puzzlewood twice yesterday taking an old friend from Clearwell to get her pension.

Too bad. Would have been great to meet somebody from the FCF!

We're on a camping just outside Dover. Still the weather is great. We've been very lucky probably. 3 weeks of good weather with only some days grey an just 2 days with showers!
Tomorrow it is back to Calais and head up north to Holland. We've had a great holiday, I'm pretty sure we'll be back...

That is an excellent weather record for the UK :D Especially as generally it's not been a particularly good summer at all...

I'm delighted you enjoyed our little island so much Furrie :D We residents quite like it too! Or, at least, I do :)

Yes, do please post up some pictures and delighted you'll be back. Maybe next time you can time it to coincide with a rally or we can perhaps organise a get-together...

I'll put some up later. Doesn't work that well with the phone. A mini-meet or the like would be great next time!

Still not done a small report, shame on me!

But we have been spotted! Look up the August 2016 Streetview pictures of 1 Plymouth road in Tavistock! I don't know how to put a like here that directly points to it...

...Or alter position slightly and zoom in a bit to see you enjoying your holidays!
