Life and Adventures in and around Devon, England
How many weeks into Lockdown are we now? It all feels a little strange doesn’t it? I don’t know about you, but I’ve started to make a list of where I wanted to go in Devon once restrictions are lifted – and its all a bit safer. My thinking started off as planning a day […]
Well instead of writing about trips and things around Devon, I’ve been meaning to podcast for a while. For quite a while. I’ve finally put a few bits together, it’s all a little quick – in a “let’s do this before I procrastinate with something else” kind of way, but… Here’s when we went litter […]
