| West Parley visit | 2021-10-22 | Camper vanning in West Parley for a meet up with old school friends.
Went for a walk down Church Lane past the Multiple Sclerosis day centre and then on to the River Stour. Lots of Whiteley family memories / connections.

| Exe to Dartmouth | 2013-06-08 | An SYC cruiser race from the Exe Safe Water Mark to the entrance of the Dart at Dartmouth. Then up to Dittisham for the night moored up on a visitors buoy.
I think I need a new GPS with a bit more memory as the start of this GPS track seems to have been lost as the available memory was overwritten by the next days sail down to Plymouth.

| Dartmouth to Plymouth sail | 2013-06-09 | A great sail in Dereks Sadler 26 from Dittisham on the Dart to QAB marina at Plymouth. Lovely strength winds but a lot from straight behind Wind strength better than forecast. Seas a bit rolly at times but not too bad at Start Point as we were there at slack water.

| Eype, West Bay and Bridport | 2018-04-16 | From Eype over high (Jurassic) cliffs to West Bay. About a F4 but southerly so entering West Bay harbour by boat would have been problematic - and a bit bouncy one inside on the outer pontoons.
Then up by the Birt River to Bridport.
Not sure why the usually excellent South West Coastpath web site (https://www.southwestcoastpath.org.uk/) recommended going into Bridport - just some muddy fields and a housing estate!

| Luskentyre Sands - a new favourite | 2022-05-14 | Scooby Hound in love with the beach at Luskentyre Sands on Harris.
Miles and miles of pristine sand with views across to Taransay.

| West Burra - Kettla Ness | 2026-06-09 | An excellent stomp around West Burra with glorious views and glorious weather!
Across a couple of causeways / bridges and down to the end of West Burra.
Just for once, a walk without much archeology on show. Just a lot of sky, cliffs, seas and sheep.
Where the track speed goes to zero for a while is where I very sensibly sat out the bit of the walk that went to The Heugg (and wouldn't lend the GPS to Liz in case she fell off)!
