Beautiful blue skies...

...today in PL6

What's everyone up to?

After a touch of bush hedge trimming, I'm off to Tesco, then I think I may surprise the kids and have a beach bbq at Wembury for tea.

Life is so much nicer, when the sun shines...

Down in 'not so sunny' Bodmin its overcast. With the expected increase in temperatures (later this week) I imagine it'll still be winter in Bodmin

Working all day in Bodmin/ Redruth then back to Guz for about 1800.

I was out working on the Rame Peninsula yesterday in the most gorgeous sunshine. We may mock Cornwall from our side of the Tamar, but if there's a more beautiful area of the country than South East Cornwall, I've yet to see it. And on a warm sunny day, it just doesn't feel like work. I may head back there again today

Ahhhhhhh spent many happy days at Wembury and long walks east over the cliffs to take the little ferry across the river for lunch and beer.

Kids weren't too happy about going in the water when the dreaded weaver fish were about lol !

Happy days !

Enjoy !

Already scorchio here and I will mostly be avoid the olympic torch today. Thousands of people lining and blocking the streets to see a big lighter that will end up on eBay. The missus is going to be mega busy at the pub with all these people expecting food. Good for the owners but she's not so keen on being ridiculously busy on a Tuesday.

A walk with the little un to the park will be the extent of my activities today.

It's a bit grey here today (as was yesterday and the day before etc), but the forecast is for the temperatures to rise during the rest of the week. I've got pre pig jobs to do then its out to sown more corn and beans then weeding; very exciting
Think I might go up the bar later. Enjoy the sun and whatever you're doing today

You're not far wrong there Andy. A large part of my formative years were spent fishing at a variety of (top secret ) marks from Penlee Point, around Rame Head and on the Queener Point.

A few parts of the North Cornish coast are equally as gorgeous mind, and even have better beaches...

Finished my latest temp job yesterday, so I'm as free as a bird. Just about to pack up a lunch, grab my camera and head up to the moors to climb a tor or something.

the right side of Dartmoor too, unfortunately I'm at work until 6pm But hey the garden is now taking on a whole new look, here's hoping this good weather holds

Probably slip off to see if Yelveron golf course is especially busy this afternoon and have a round if i can get a tee time.If not, back to my home course.We beat Whitsand Bay in the previous round of the Daily Mail foursomes,now through to the fourth round,drawn at home to Budleigh Salterton.

I am currently a 1/4 of the way through my GCSE exams, and we have this weather, not fair, sitting at home everyday on study leave, boring stuff. At least I no longer have to worry about Food technology, drama, english lit and biology GCSE's then I can leave and go to college, woop woop.

No doubt when I get my 8 weeks off this summer, the sun will go back in.

Don't think Yelvie do tee times mate. You just turn up and if necessary, balls in the shoot. Same as Staddon, always thought it was a bit wierd that...

Litle fluffy clouds (great tune BTW) in PL6 now. Still plenty of blue though.

No,they don't officially but if there's a big queue there,i'll leave it for another day.I've played Yelverton quite a few times,really enjoy the course but it can be a total barsteward when the wind blows-i once ended up playing 7 off the tee on the 10th,first three tee shots blown into the gorse!

Oh boo! Not only have domestic/familial responsibilities forced me to postpone my tor climbing, you've now also put some deeply unpleasant images into my brain.

Deeply unpleasant.

A very warm and sunny day in Berks and Bucks. Pity, I have been stuck in doors working!

A scenic tour of Portsmouth Harbour for me stopping at various destinations.

sun setting over the incinerator here in nottm, lovely purples, nature never knew colours like that!

Took the better half to Totnes for Lunch and finish the day with a evening stroll with coffee on the Hoe

Ahhhhhh another fond memory from the late 60's early seventies. Dozens of us on the first tee on a Sunday morning, waiting for the sun to rise to start the medal round.

The guffaws if you failed to get across the road with your tee shot still echo in my ears !

Nice sunny morning in PL4. Almost cloudless sky

Tring is offically in Herts but is out on a limb geographically and its heart has always been with Bucks to my knowledge.

No need to stop once you get to the end though

Live in Slough, Berks, grew up in Taplow near Maidenhead and work in High Wycombe both in South Bucks.

Lovely day here in Bucks but stuck inside again! My work mates have bagged all the outside jobs.

Actually managed to get out of the house today, had a wonder around central park and had lunch in the Britt, perfecto
