I've been staying in Plymouth this week - and some evenings I've had a brief opportunity to walk around and see some of the sights of the city. Here are some of the more "oddball" pictures ... not quote the standard tourist views of the Hoe and the Barbican.
This has been a tough week to be away - so much to do here, and so much going on back in Melksham where I would have loved to have been (I'm usually fine when away); signs like the ones at the top, advertising a plethora of meals for two made the one on his own feel really unwelcomed. So I was really happy to - unusually - go out one evening with one of the delegates on the course ...
you know who you are - Thank you.
