Morwellham Quay and Paignton Zoo
We are still down in Devon this week with my picture collection. A visit to Morwellham Quay near Tavistock and a visit to Paignton Zoo.
This week there is very much an animal theme, from pigs to horse from monkeys to Zebra...
Brixham and Dingles
While on hioliday in South Devon we had a visit to Brixham and a day trip to Dingles Fairground Heritage Centre near Lifton Devon, here are a few pictures from our visits.
The South Devon Railway
Here are a few pictures of our trip on The South Devon Railway which runs from Totnes to Buckfastleigh, a 7 mile trip. A great time was had by all, we enjoyed the sights, sounds and smells. Great countryside, wonderful steam smell and the chuff of a loco what more could we want for a day out. And to finish off our day our dog Jess had a lovely swim in the River Dart.
Brooklands Museum
We spent a lovely day at The Brooklands Musuem, Weybridge. Surrey. There was lot to see and keep us busy even if it was in March. We also went for a look around the Hugh Mecredes building which is a short walk from the museum and here one of our party took put in the AMG driving.
It's well worth a trip here, infact we didn't have enough time to finish of Brooklands so we will be making a return trip somewhen when they have an event on.
Enjoy the pictures.

A walk on Harting Hill, West Sussex
A few pictures this week that I took while on a family walk up on Harting Hill in West Sussex on a chilly windy Sunday afternoon but a great way to spend a few hours out in the fresh air.
