Nice flowers outside Mother's place
The Tom Cobley and a Return to Haytor, Bovey Tracey, Devon - 27th May 2019
We return to Haytor, just outside Bovey Tracey, for a walk and an ice cream. The last time we were there was back in 2012, when Harry was still a baby, stuck to Nosher in a Baby Björn. The next day, we pick Grandma J up and head over to yet another café - Café 3 Sixty - which is built into a converted garage and which is now styled as a cycling place, with lots of bikes around and people dressed in lycra. Then, we're off on the 350 mile trip back to Suffolk. In-between all of that, we're out at the Tom Cobley in Spreyton for dinner and beer.

Isobel and Sis in Spreyton
Fred plays chess in the Tom Cobley
Fred makes his move
Sis and Matt look up
Isobel scopes out the Cobley's menu
Sis and Isobel in the Cobley restaurant
Roger the landlord roams around
Fred at the back bar
The boys run through Spreyton
Isobel in the Spreyton Village Shop
Isobel hauls the shop booty to the car
Mother looks worried in the car park at Bovey
We exit the car park through tall weeds
Looking up the street by the mill
The old mill in Bovey Tracey
The boys look into the river
Fred walks past a nice mosaic
Mother is happy to be somewhere with nice things
Mother roams around the gallery
Isobel, Harry and Grandma J wait
We walk up Fore Street
Fred tries out his new calligraphy pen
Harry and Fred in the café
Fred stares at the camera
Mother looks over
Grandma J and Isobel outside Brookside Café
Harry's on a roundabout
Fred peers into the river
The bridge over the river at Bovey
Harry and Fred on the rocks near Hay Tor
Harry shouts at the wind
There's an ice cream van braving the elements
We head off up Hay Tor
The boys run off
A dog gets a walk
Harry roams around
The boys do a bit of climbing
Fred and Harry run up to the higher bit of the tor
We end up hanging out with some actual climbers
People climb over the tor like ants
A view of the car park down below
Harry pushes into the wind
A murky Dartmoor view from Hay Tor
Harry and Fred are in a rock shelter
Isobel takes a photo
Someone in the distance is a dot on the granite
People walk around
Harry is wind-swept
We shelter from the wind for a bit
Fred in some rocks
Another view of Dartmoor
Harry in his Mountain Warehouse coat
We head back down to the car park
Isobel's hair is whipped around in the fierce wind
The boys do some posing
Harry and Fred enjoy messing around
It's time for an ice cream
We march around with ice creams
A 'you are here' information sign
A couple of black cows munch the grass
A derelict cottage on the way from Bovey
A pile of orrugated iron in the derelict house
There's a nice sunset view towards the Taw Valley
There's a field of sheep next to Mother's house
Political comment about Bovey's community centre
The gang roam around on Fore Street
We wait to cross the road
A tandem bike cycles past
An old garage now just sells cars
A tap in a glavanised tank
Fred and Isobel do menus
Café 3 Sixty
Fred looks puzzled
Walking back to the car park
Fred takes his sweater off
The hotel has a butler statue outside
Harry and Grandma J
We takes some of Mother's old things to her room
The gardener at Mother's place has bought the dog
Isobel says hello to the dog
We get a photo with a borrowed golden retriever
Harry hugs Grandma J
Fred gets a hug
The library room
We make a wee stop at services on the M4
Nosher's back at work, but at least Kokodoo Korean van is in Sheldon Square
