~ we went to Tavistock last Saturday ~ it has very picturesque weir~ photos below~

there was this really cute little machine which automatically leaned into the water and scooped out all the fallen tree leaves in a big mesh cradle. you can see it better in the third pic.

~was a very nice trip although coming back along the M5 can be very busy!

what great pioctures arlene, me and hubby were sitting on the bench against the wall eating our fish and chips last saturday. We spent Friday till Monday at Chillaton in Dartmoor and had gone into Tavistock for the day, and who forgot to take the camera with her.

~Sorry Grindle~ it would have been nice to see you! but it was an unexpected trip to take my son to see a man about a car! we drove home in convoy!
As it was we arrived quite late and didn't get back home until after midnight.
What time were you there Stroller~ we had coffee and a cake at the local Costa! ~and then fish and chips at one of the service stations back along the motorway~I bet ours weren't as nice as yours and three times more expensive!
