Starting out from my home in Torquay, my friend Karen (who had come over from Hastings to help celebrate my birthday) and I headed north to Tiverton to check off yet another item on my bucket list – a journey on one of England’s last horse-drawn canal boats.
…these archways were once used to burn lime…
…but first, before our cruise, a scrumptious lunch in the cafe…
This is Ruby – the first female horse to have pulled the boat…
Tom, our guide and deckhand…
It was an absolutely glorious day, despite the rain… followed by wine, home-delivered Chinese food and a movie when we finally returned home.
The perfect way to spend a day!

Goodwood Revival There are a handful of experiences one has that are so wonderful, there are simply not enough superlatives to describe them - the Goodwood Revival was such an experience! This was one of the best days I have ever had - ever! So, what is the Goodwood Revival?…
A perfect morning to literally just walk across the street and board a boat, cruising over Torbay to Brixham... ...and back home in time for another movie, more wine, and then getting ready to go out to meet up with dear friends to celebrate my birthday at the Imperial... Yet…
Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you! It was such a lovely day…
