A week at Castle Rock, Port Isaac




We spent half term week in Cornwall with the "The Chad-a-wicks and the Bells" (as described by Angus). There were 14 of us perched in the big house on the dramatic cliff-top (http://www.johnbraycornishholidays.co.uk/holiday-cottage-214.html) and the week was highlighted by wind, waves and some great fun. See the blogs that follow..

Cycling from Castle Rock

Bikes were a major theme of the week. Here, Josh shows off his back-wheel skills in the drive, whilst other photos depict the 10 mile ride along the Camel Trail between Wadebridge and Padstow.

'Been a long time....

Why can't I sit at the dinner table too?


This afternoon we got together with Charlie, Juliet and Madeline in their new house in Exminster. We must do this more often, a lovely lazy Sunday afternoon. Thank-you!

I want my pasta!
Ahh!

Families, fires and photos


This weekend my cousin Adrian and his wife Dee and daughters Sophie and Isobel came to stay. We had a terrific time, characterised by fires and photography. Adrian has a new camera and here are some of the results. Photos taken by Adrian, Isobel and Sophie.
