From Mylor Bridge to Mylor Harbour and on past Restronguet Sailing Club

Lovely dinner at the Pandora Inn - first of the holiday. The 1 in 4 hill on the way back was a bit of an ask when full of Cornish Ratler and Gurnard (or Guiness and Mackerel in Lizzie's case)

Mylor Harbour round to Flushing and then back up Mylor Creek. Top paddle! Very slight swell from SE winds when going along the shore before turning into the the Falmouth shelter.

From Helford Passage via Frenchman's Creek up into Mawgan Creek towards the top of the Helford Estuary. A little windy on the way back meant plenty of exercise!

From Mylor Harbour to Trelissick and back via Looe Beach. Tried teaching Scooby to swim at Looe Beach but he was too much of a wuss - even for strawberry ice cream.

After putting up with three days of canoeing, Scooby gets some recompense with a walk along Perranporth beach. We walked 5 miles - he probably ran 15 miles.

Too windy for canoeing (F5/6 from the east) so a yomp with the hound around St Anthony Head. Top walk with just about the right amount of up and downiness.

After the 6.5 miles yomp round St Anthony Head, another mile and half to the Pandora Inn for our anniversary dinner. Fifteen years married, 21 years together and 30 years since we met. Less for murder as they say (and Li…

A walk round part of the Lizard peninsula taking in views of the Manacles rocks, old quarries / mines and then, best of all, on to the farm that makes Roskilly's ice cream! Some steep up and downy bits along the way.

A walk along Mylor Creek to Mylor Harbour for breakfast. Sat on the beach and watched some boats getting surprised by how windy it was.

Liz did plants. Scooby and I did reading and digging holes on the beach (maybe not in that order).

A canoe trip from Loe beack up pass Trellisick and King Harry Ferry on to just past Malpas (on the way to Truro). It was a bit windy - force 5 ish - so we didn't go all the way to Truro although we'd got up very early on…

Actually the GPS track is just of Mawgan Porth but most of Scooby's walk was at Watergate Bay which is one bay to the west of here and quite a bit bigger. Good crab soup at the Beach Hut at Watergate Bay.

A round trip from Mylor Bridge to Flushing and then back via Mylor Harbour. Very nice lunch at the cafe at Mylor harbour.

A short walk along the coast path for Scoobys early evening perambulation.

A morning constitutional for Scooby before the rain came in

From Cawsand to Rame Head on a Lizzie big birthday. Drinking champagne at the end of Rame Head in a hail storm in January!

A round trip from Fort Pickelcombe to the Devonport Inn. Along the cliff path in the moon light. Romantic and muddy in about equal measures. The Devonport was as good as old times. Good food, nice wine, friendly..

From Fort Picklecombe round the Mount Edgcumbe estate to Cremyl and then back over Maker Heights

A lowish tide walk along Seaton Beach so Scooby could have some ball chase practise

Cawsand to Polhawn and along the cliff paths to the View Cafe (shut). Back via Wiggle.

A circular walk from Looe inland to Talland bay and then back along the coast path. Loads of rainbows - but then it was sunny and rainy. Quite a long walk for us given the ups and downs involved

A quick beach walk for Scooby Hound. He loved it. Lots of hole digging in the sand and trotting along the beach. Sadly, it was to be his very last beach visit but he looks so happy and bouncy in the photos! Within 36 hou…

A cliff walk from Trewethett Farm campsite to Boscastle. Then up from Boscastle through the old village and to the top of the overlooking hills. Felt a lot more that the 215 metres shown on the elevation graph. Back via…

From Millbrook up the Tamar to the entrance to the Lyhner River. Top paddling with lots of war like stuff in the Plymouth Dockyards juxtaposed with beautiful countryside on the other side. Next time, we'll take the car a…

Sixteenth anniversary dinner at the Pandora Inn on the Fal. Only a day late but it was raining yesterday. Lovely food and the Rattler was good too. Sod of a hill on the way "home" when full of food and drink.

Walk with wife and hound to Mylor for some breakfast. Then along to watch the kids from Restronguet Sailing Club playing "how many times can you capsize a Mirror" in the F5ish winds

Thought it it be nice to see the most southerly point in Engalnd in a force eight gale. Walking along a cliff top into a 40 knot wind with a less than bright hound on the lead turned out to be hard work! Glad it was a sh…

Scooby's second favourite beach in the whole world. We walked 5 miles - he probably ran somewhere between 15 and 20 miles. Scooby now crashed out asleep!

Coffee and cake in Sennen and, for Liz, a wander round the posh tat shop (the capstan house). Daft sods at Sennen don't allow dogs on to the beach until the end of September - they must lose so much business from people…
