Above .... the This'n'Thatmobile parked by 'our' Norman castle. There's worse car parking in this world! On a clear evening, the skyline is just amazing with the castle silhouetted against the stars ... that's a future challenge for my new camera!
The castle grounds.
... and lots of wild garlic! I wonder if the Normans had wild garlic?
You see, one minute you talk of caravans, conjuring up the notion of travelling Now you have a castle, a statement of permanence. Are you coming or going? lol! How insightful of the Normans to build a car park in front of their premises. On a less flippant note, I know the scene well and can conjure up in my minds eye the setting, both during the day with splendid vistas, as well at night with the castle silhouetted against the stars.
This lovely painting was used for the shop's Christmas giveaway card in recent years Now, we have moved on and sell at vintage fairs from time to time. Otherwise, retirement as such, is filled with work on our recently purchased house in Brixham for the time being.
The Four Seasons Guest House, Bridgetown Totnes.
A brilliant place to stay in Totnes! It's just across the old bridge and so handy for shopping and evenings out. We stayed there for several nights during our recent house move It is run by such a kind, helpful couple, Laura and Paul. The breakfasts are second to none. Comfortable rooms ....... :)
Great places to stay worldwide!!
Take a look at airbnb. The link will take you to Maddy's entry for Totnes. (remember Maddy who helped me with This'n'That until we closed?) Then, just explore the rest of airbnb to see the worldwide opportunities.
Tangerine Tree, 50, High Street, Totnes
My regular haunt - great coffee, wonderful cakes, good company:)
