Boscastle

4.45 PM
Well, before christine and I went to Boscastle for a little look around.
The weather was horrible and it was drizzling most of the time, but we did walk through the little village and looked in some shops. Christine read and told me what she knew of the flood that was there in March 2004. The carpark had to be rebuilt. basically, the river broke the banks and swept a lotn of cars out towards sea. I think they got something like a million mls in about an hour; that's definitely a lot.
The air was full of the sound of seagulls and the river flowing either side of the village.
We were going to climb the cliff, but was extremely cold by that stage, and a passerby told us it was worse up there.
Once back here, christine showed me a bit around their garden since I hadn't seen it yet, and then we came in for a cuppa and a chat with Jack.
Spoke to RB on skype for a while this morning.
Still got my damn cold and unfortunately it kinda seemed worse this morning. It sucks as before when we were out, we had a real Cornish pasty and I couldn't taste it! :( *grrr
Til next time, RdFreak
