Smile Cor ! What a lovely warm evening.

Just that really. What a lovely warm early evening , if a bit too windy around the edges.

I know it will be gone early here but it has reminded me of those lovely, long, warm ,late evenings to twilight days in the UK. Possibly in a country pub garden

Aahhh

Right that one's on the list. Country pubs in our area have all gone upmarket long ago now reservations, fine dining and wine..... Forgot to mention the price..... Only way they can make ends meet with no or little winter trade.

A real ploughmans in a lovely country pub of your choice and then stay as the light falls gradually into twilight and then darkness around 10pm.

Stop bragging lol! I have not seen a boddies since I have been here mind you I am not one to frequent the local pubs either prefering to be unsociable and drink at home or at BBQ's.

They look lovely Bevs, mind you Devon is splattered with the olde world pubs too so can't wait to go and have my fill ! If I am ever in Dorset I will be sure and seek the square and compass out.

Oh I used to go up on Dartmoor and Exmoor and to those lovely Cornish pubs when we moved there like the one in Doc Martin, often used to frequent the area around Port Issac and my local hostelries down in St Austell area. Great atmosphere and in all my travels there is nothing beats an old english pub!
