North Devon - Close to heaven

Easter is done for another year, and the greying locals of Bath can put there crosses away for another year. A 6am Friday start was rewarded with a swift run through central London past all the landmarks; Waterloo Bridge, The Strand, Pall Mall, Buckingham Palace, Harrods etc and then on to the M4 and straight to Bath and the closest pasty shop.

Bath was sunny and pleasant, the local christians were in top form with the verse, and we managed to find a shop to refill our lpg canister, which was way more exciting than what it sounds. Also stocked up on a good supply of sporting goods such as cricket set, rugby and soccer balls.

North Devon was very beautiful, especially round the towns of Lynton and our local Coombe Martin. Our trailer park was basically empty, and the quaint little town showed no sign of a tourist invasion. I think it was just us and a few chav's. Not to worry, I managed to spend a bit more than expected on a fishing rod, and reel as well as other gears. All worth it I reckon even though I didn't catch anything.
