Been away two weeks in the rain and storms to the lakes and now robin hoods bay! Was holding up well but reached maximum saturation last night 
3 leaks now plugged with a body board, tea towel and a baby wipe - advanced stuff. Alternator went bit dicky yesterday so got overnight delivery one arriving in an hour - least can fit from the inside!

Maybe not still the same one, but my dad wrote the castle guide book!

Walk from base camp to bit past Tintagel to have a pub lunch. Fortunately got within 100m before it hacked it down. Unfortunately the pub was full. Lucky meeting someone with a car so drove back and picked up pasties. Today a slightly easier walk to Boscastle for lunch and we’ve pre booked and they give good weather.

Fried breakfast supplied by friends and I set off about 9.45am and it took about 2 hours. The rest are staying on so had to go solo and didn’t even get lost. I’m a driving god! A brilliant drive but there was quite a strong smell of petrol on way back and the brakes squeak. R2 did much better than me. I forgot the gas connector for the bbq, the only coat repelled water as well as a sheet of Bounty, assumed there was a camp shop for milk etc but not open because of the plague. If I hadn’t been rushing to build everything so late in the day I may have got my act together and packed properly. Fantastic fun though

Lol it was well worth it
Ah, Cornwall. (Sighs). We'll be back there again soon.
Well done for getting it (almost) together for a good trip out.

Another little escape to the seaside.
well - when you live on an island.. it’s not too difficult to get to the ocean.
Sun, fog, hot days and chilly nights.
Getting away when I can - most campgrounds will be closing in September.
