Back from Devon

Oh my.

I've just had the most incredible weekend break - in the most amzing location.

It was in the UK....

... and even with the subzero temperatures that we're getting, it was still unforgettable...

Are you ready??

Well, here's where I spent the last few nights:

Yes - a real castle - albeit a small one - but still a castle, built in the fifteenth century.


It's at Dartmouth (opposite Dartmouth castle..)

And this is where we slept...


and the view from the roof:

Sun set...


Jim took rather a shine to it and seemed to think that he had become master of all he surveyed...




It was for a friends 40th birthday party - he and his girlfiend had the 'luxury' room, and Jim and I shared the twin room - where you could open the windows at night and hear the waves crashing against the rocks (for a very short time, before it became too darn cold and the windows had to be shut...).

So no progress on WIPS to report (Dartmouth is a LONG way from Sheffield - the journey home took about 5 hours) - and as the only driver, I'm going to go and lie on the sofa for a while now...

I'm sure there will be more photos posted very soon..

What a fantastic place to spend the weekend, hope we do get to see more photos. Glad you got home safely before the snow arrived.
