MONDAY
This morning we set of for Cheddar , got that sat nav programmed in and updated , the egg mayo sarnies where freshly made, Helen insists on cutting them into quarters, along with two flasks, one coffee one tea.First stop petrol station filled up and started to head south we left at half past ten.only stopped off once on the way at a service station and got to cheddar at around half past two .I was impressed parked up three pound all day to park ,the views and scenery around us it was idyllic the rocks and cliffs with the road meandering through the gorge was as good as the Lakes or Scotland.




we called in to a few shops and walked down in to the rest off the village .called in for a chicken panini with cheese at Edelweiss cafe , i want to buy some scrump cider, i have never had cider other than stuff that's sold and bought from supermarkets and local off licence


Left just after five o clock , to set of for Bristol to stay at our Friends house about 20 miles away. On route we stopped at Priddy close to the gorge , where Diana Dors lived ,and is buried at the local church in unmarked grave so we are told.



Thanks to to the sat nav got to Bristol and the house we are staying at for the next two nights with out a hitch, We are staying in the summer house which was at the bottom of there garden and was built by hand not from a kit or pre assembled for under £1600.
We was on a sofa bed it was warm it was all electric with heaters and spot lights , and the bed wasn't that bad most of all it was free thank you Kerri and Paul ,we slept ok, it was a new experience made me think about converting our garage in to a summer house or guest house we cant get the Landrover in because of the drive and up and over garage doors.




Tuesday
went to Morrison's at Bristol for breakfast and headed for Illfracombe about 112 miles away. Helen bought me a silver ring which was very touching and will always remind me of our visit to Cheddar .

Called at Lynton and Lynmouth all these places Helen had been to before for me i had never been this far south for years and had never been to these villages and towns i have to say everywhere we went i loved and i want to go back and visit more places in Cornwall and coastal villages and towns as soon as we can .
