So a week in Newquay with 2 sons, 1 daughter, 1 son's GF and Mum. What a nice time we had. The weather was pretty kind with some days with sunny spells and some overcast days but no real rain to speak. Even on the overcast days when we were doing other stuff we did comment that it was warm enough to be on the beach. On saying that we had a couple of lovely lazy days on the beach with the sun coming out form time-to-time, enough so on the first beach day that Tom and Beth got a little sunburn !!!
The Honda was packed a little tight but it never missed a beat and got us down there cruising effortlessly at 80 mph and without requiring an ocean tanker of crude oil (it's certainly no Land Rover!!) We had pushed the boat out and rented a lovely house for the week which was within walking distance of the town centre and the closest beaches. We cooked together, ate together, we cleaned together and enjoyed pretty much everything together. On the overcast days we went to the zoo, the aqaurium, the pirate musuem and did a bit of shopping. I really like the surf-wear they have down there so spent a small fortune on clothes. I even found the time to read a couple of novels, Koontz and Coburn; very good.
As I said, a great time was had by all, and I got a new profile picture fo FB ;-)
