Leaving Padstow in the wee small hours

Paul will be setting off to Milford Haven tomorrow morning 31st May at around 4am. Padstow harbour has a gate which only opens for 2 hours either side of high tide, and so Paul is leaving late in the window and hopes to reach Milford Haven late morning.

Sally’s Blog - At last I’ve cracked it

At last I can drive around Plymouth without getting lost - it’s only taken 2 and a half years! I’ve just been to the shop CDS The Range, which we learnt the other day actually started in Plymouth before going Nationwide.

Now home, the sky has gone black - I think it may rain!

Just got in touch with the local Amateur Dramatic group - one of my main hobbies - and I shall be going to one of the rehearsals next week to meet them. Looking forward to that - it’s ages since I last did a play and I’m getting withdrawal symptoms.

Paul’s in Padstow - not very far away yet but once he sets off to Wales it will seem a bit more like he’s gone away.

Safely in Padstow

Paul has arrived in Padstow and is tied up against the wall. Mobile phone coverage is very poor there, so he will wait until he reaches Milford Haven to upload photos and write the Travel Blog.

Lovely day

The weather here is calm and cloudy and a bit chilly but it looks like it could be a great day for being at sea providing that it has calmed down sufficiently after yesterday’s blow.

I will write more when in Padstow but for now I must push on and turn my caravan back into a boat because I want to leave here at 7ish. I am hoping to make this trip a slow one and get some good piccies so I have to leave early if I am to get into Padstow.
