Part Two
Cowslips
When I was a wee boy, these guys were considered endangered in the wild, IIRC. Not any more.
Water Hawthorn
Going to to try to take that to the new house, or get another one when I sort out the 'pond' there

On a Roll
All Gone Bye-Byes
I Can See Our House from Here
Back soonish, I hope.

Part Two
Tangled Up in Orange
Dog Friendly
These days, it's rare to find a pub that does not welcome dogs. Back then, they were a rarity
Two Bridges
One mediaeval, one neolithic, at the rather unimaginatively named Two Bridges on Dartmoor - taking a leisurely way home to Bristol
Stepping Stones, Too
As above
Familiar Ground
Dropping in to Dawlish on the way home

Re: Ray's Photos
Part one is from June 1988 and the build-up to my wedding to Chip on the 30th. You don't get to see any pics of that, because herself insisted, not unreasonably, that we should take prints so that we could show them around. And I handed my cameras over to Bill on the day itself. Part Two is still in Exeter in the middle of last month
Ginger Fop

Re: Ray's Photos
In part one today, home from Exeter in the middle of April. Part two starts on the first or second of July 1988, and Chip and I are in a hotel in Lyme Regis. It's our honeymoon, and the weather ain't great – something you could not really tell from the snapping, which was frenzied in the odd burst of sunshine – but at least there's a TV in our room, and it's Wimbledon fortnight, so plenty of tennis to watch. Between rain breaks.
Showing the Colours

Looking for Omens
Parked
Crediton Market Square
The Sniff Test
Butt Pug Inspection
That 'Come On Down' Look
And down indeed I went, but that's next time

Driving in Dorset
that's it for a couple of days at least

Re: Ray's Photos

Some more from Dorset in the first days of July 1988
Dog Friendly
It's rare these days to find a pub that does not welcome dogs; back then, they often weren't allowed outside. This is the Shave Cross Inn, near Bridport
Jurassic Coast
Taking advantage of a break in the weather at Lyme, here and subsequently
Heraldry and Baskets
The Guild Hall, Lyme
Sea Wall

The Prom
Fresh
