Britain it seems has gone to the dogs, actually a pack of wild dogs would not behave like those looting and rioting in our cities. I look out of the window and across the valley and I find it very hard to comprehend just what is going on; but it is. It’s grim. Other bloggers are writing about it and a lot of people are reading about it, Police Inspector Gadget’s blog had over 33,000 ‘hits’ yesterday.
Lets escape to the seaside
The beach at Slapton, not a beach to dally with, it shelves steeply, as Joe discovered a few years ago when one evening, he went in to the water, after his shoe that had been thrown into the sea when a beach game got a little over excited.
And the picturesque, Gara Rock,
You can still see the ancient field boundaries at Decklers Cliff that are thought to date back to the Bronze age.

You really should be on a stipend (or at least a bung) from the tourist board. Those pictures are fab!

I’m quite cheap, a couple of Devon cream teas or Salcombe dairy milkshake would suffice.

I can almost taste the fresh air in your pictures! xx

I don’t understand what’s going on in the cities there. I barely understand my own little patch of ground. I do know this. We’ve been slaughtering each other since before those Bronze Age field boundaries were laid. Maybe we’re just not a very pleasant species. But as we’re all we’ve got, we’d best try to do better.
Lord your land is beautiful, and your sea a marvel.

Since I’ve been giving Inspector Gadget’s blog so many hits lately, I thought I’d give yours one too! Beautiful photos, and I loved the one a few days ago of Spud enjoying his holiday.

Gara Rock and Decklers Cliff looks so beautiful and peaceful (apart from the roaring sea!), I hope I am right that riots in your cities have stopped again?

I hope so, I’ve got to go in to Manchester tomorrow….
