From Cawsand to Rame Head and back. Scooby pulled like a bxxxxxd much of the way especially when trying to say hello to the horses by the hermits cottage on Rame Head.

A drive from one side of Cornwall to the other to do Lizzies favourite walk. The rain and fog from north Cornwall didnt make it down to the south coast to affect this walk from Cawsand to Rame head and back again.

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

Liz's favourite walk! A visit after a weekend in Lostwithiel with Richard & Helen to take in Motorhead and The Stranglers at the Eden Sessions. As I was wandering along the coastpath, I was idly wondering whether I've se…

Liz's favourite walk and Scooby was quite keen too. Protected from the strong westerly winds until finally climbing to the hermit's house at the end of Rame Head

Lizzie's favourite walk - again! After driving through a torrential downpour in Plymouth, the walk from Cawsand to Rame Head was mostly sunny with about F5 winds.

Liz's favourite walk. Scooby's third favourite walk. I went along too.

Lizzie's favourite walk again. This time from the campsite on Maker Heights - just to give it a bit more up and downyness. Hot - so quite hard work for an eight mile walk.

Times two! Birthday lunch at the Cawsand Bay Hotel and then the traditional yomp to Rame Head for Jaffa Cakes and Prosecco..

A hot, if misty, day and an old boy so we only did a short walk to Penlee Point. Found some new places to sit and watch the world go by on the estuary. New beach to visit at low tide

Hot sunny August Sunday and we had a whole cove at Tregantle Beach to ourselves - Cornwall's "forgotten peninsula" at it's very best. Scooby had a whale of a time - didn't stop for the whole two and half hours - even kep…

Had our first sight of The Orkneys as we approached Duncansby Head. Had a short stop (as we were running a little late) to see some birds and sea stacks - and the most north easterly point of the UK mainland - and a ligh…

Up to the north west bit of South Ronaldsway for a short stomp around the headland that "guards" the entrance to Scapa Flow. As you'd expect, lots of old military relics. Some scary cliffs and with a young, enthusiastic,…

Off the ferry at 07:30 (happily no reversing required), and on to a dreek Lerwick early on a bank holiday Monday. Unsurprisingly, it was mostly shut so we headed off south towards our first campsite but way too early to…

Slight variations on an old walk. The cafe at Porthgwarra is closed on Mondays and Tuesdays - damn! Gwenapp Head is so much more inspiring than Lands End. Spotted some Cornish Choughs eating cow shit. Back through fields…

A fairly strenuous walk from Porthleven to Rinsey Head and back inland. The coast path from Porthleven to Rinsey Head had lots of up and downy bits. We fancied making it a circular walk rather than an "out and back" one…

Paid an outrageous £6 for parking at Land's End and then promptly headed off to Gwenapp Head. Watched yacht doing the "inshore passage" round Land's End and then had lunch at Porthgwarra Cafe. Back via an inland route an…

A new take on another of Liz's favourite walks - to Rosemullion Head (between the Fal and the Helford). Scooby allowed us to just sit a read for a hour or so while watching the strange floaty things out to sea). Then bac…

Another new take on a favourite walk. From Treen, via St Levans, Porthgwarra and on to Gwenapp Head (just along from Lands End and happily not touched by the awful tat at Lands End). We could see the rain showers getting…

Staying at the rather nice (but rather expensive) campsite directly overlooking Polzeath beach, we drove down to Rock and caught the ferry over to Padstow. Padstow was heaving with tourists as expected (even on a Thursda…

Four beaches in one walk - Scooby in doggie heaven. In the campervan at the very nice Trehias Farm Camping - near Trevose Head (just west of Padstow). Walk via Treyarnon Bay, Constantine Bay, Long Cove and Harlyn Beach -…

On to Trewince camp site and one of Liz's favourite walks - around St Anthonys Head. Stunning views - some of the early photos could be of the Mediterranean. After going past the light house at the end of St Anthony's…

A lovely day sail on Derek H's Fulmar. First a quick trip with Liz on board round Berry Head. Mostly motor sailing and watching the wildlife. Then, after dropping Liz off back in Brixham, a sail back up to SYC on the Exe…

Sailing Derek H's new boat back towards the Exe. Stage 2 of the journey from Poole to Weymouth. The boat is a rather nice Westerley Fulmar. Fairly large tides so we took the offshore route around the overfalls at St Alba…
