We took the campervan for a wander along the Somerset coast, stopping at Mineshead, Watchet, Blue Anchor, etc. Here a view from the west end of Minehead, Wales in the distance.

With Miles, Flo and dogs.

Lucy and I walked from near Leigh Court in Abbots Leigh to Ashton Vale.

Abbey House Gardens, in Malmesbury, Wiltshire, covers five acres and is, until the end of May, hosting a sculpture exhibition.

We met Wendy and Graham and family and friends in the Cotswolds. We walked through the woods from Cranham Common.

During the recent covid restrictions we’ve learnt not to go to anywhere at the weekend that might be considered a beauty spot. Particularly if the weather’s ok. They’re packed out! Instead, we’ve developed our Saturday Walk, which we do around Portishead. After living here for twelve years we have actually discovered some new areas. Here is a heron, fishing in a stream which runs through the town and eventually enters the sea near the marina.

Stuff gets washed up on the North Somerset coast, here, for example is a bail of hay which I like to think came from Hay on Wye. Not so unlikely as a few months ago a pub table, complete with attached benches, arrived and has been identified as coming all the way from The Boat Inn near Monmouth on the River Wye.
