Seaside II

The manager of the Hotel disagreed with us that the room had been missold and wanted two nights pay instead of the one we actually stayed for. We refused and moved out of the Devoran Hotel (good for the over nineties who don't mind a hotel with 'do not' signs everywhere, an arrogant manager and an all pervading smell of cabbage) we drove to Beer. This lovely seaside town is where my parents had their honeymoon and later brought there son, who loved it.

I'm glad to report the place was still charming and relaxing. J and I booked into the Anchor Hotel (highly recommended), relaxed and went for two long walks along the coast. Good food and seriously good beer was sampled too.

Home today and on our evening walk we watched a foal running around its field, kicking its legs up as it went. Possibly the most positive thing I've seen in a long while.
