A burst of hot weather takes us unawares but we manage to squeeze in a quick trip to Cornwall to catch some swell. A nice two to three foot and clean blue lines. Spring swell, fresh and exciting before the algae blooms and the water becomes murky with sun lotion and icecream wrappers. Spring lows mean plenty of muscles exposed on the rock and we wash and steam on the barbque with some early prawns. A beer and some hot cross buns - our nod to the Easter season and we're back up the atlantic highway to North Devon chasing the sunset all the way........

The Houseboats are Back



The houseboats are back in the corner of Crow Point, tucked in behind the lighthouse in the shelter of the dunes. Always a releif after winter, they always seem to turn upthe same weekend that the swallows do. Maybe it's time to excavate the flip flops from the bottom of the wardrobe after all!
