title A Trip to The Barbican, Plymouth, Devon - 6th April 2007 intro It's time to head down to Plymouth to see Mother and Mike. This time, Isobel comes along to see some of the old stomping ground, so we wander around Plymouth Hoe and the Barbican for a while before heading off via the Torpoint Ferry to Cornwall. Once in Cornwall, we find a spot on the wide ranges of sand at Whitsand Bay and hang out for a while, looking at the rock pools and sea-creatures clinging to the rocks. Upon our return, Mike has created another impressive feast of fish, and to round off the night he gets out a small still and rustles up some home-made fire water. imgp4182 A view over West Hoe imgp4185 The compulsory shot of Smeaton's Tower imgp4186 West Hoe, Plymouth imgp4187 A wide view of Hoe Drive imgp4189 The Belvedere imgp4193 A flower garden on East Hoe imgp4197 Isobel mills around near a K6 phonebox on East Hoe imgp4198 The obelisk round the back of the Hoe imgp4199 Southside Street in the Barbican imgp4200 Lenkiewicz's murals are fading badly imgp4203 The Plymouth Gin Distillery, once a student haunt imgp4204 Inside the Plymouth Gin Distillery imgp4205 Pubs and the customs house on the Barbican imgp4206 Fishing boat on the harbour imgp4207 A fishing boat in the Marina imgp4210 A lone swan floats about imgp4211 The "Plymouth Quest" imgp4214 The queue for Cap'n Jasper's imgp4215 There's a carousel on the Barbican imgp4217 A mural with John Dudley and a telescope imgp4220 People hang around near New Street imgp4222 Isobel near the Mayflower steps imgp4224 The Mayflower Steps imgp4225 Isobel stands on the site of the Mayflower Steps imgp4227 One of the cruise ships imgp4231 A nice Jaguar XK on Madeira Road imgp4232 A classic Jaguar XK on the Hoe imgp4234 East Hoe, and Smeaton's Tower imgp4235 East Hoe and Tinside Lido imgp4238 The massive frigate sheds at Devonport imgp4240 Ships moored at Devonport, including F87 HMS Chatham imgp4243 On the Torpoint Ferry imgp4244 The car deck of the Torpoint ferry imgp4248 There's a bit of rubbish on the beach imgp4249 Isobel stops to change feet on Whitsand Bay beach imgp4251 Whitsand Bay beach imgp4261 Rippled sand on the beach imgp4265 Isobel walks around imgp4270 Jagged rocks stick out of the sand imgp4274 Mussels and barnacles imgp4275 Isobel gets her feet in the sand imgp4293 Aeolian and water erosion patterns imgp4295 Footprints on the sand imgp4300 Nosher's feet, and rippled sand imgp4313 A nice rock pool imgp4328 Isobel walks along the waterline imgp4338 Viaduct on the River Tiddy at St. Germans imgp4343 Dartmoor sheep near Hoo Meavy imgp4348 Isobel leans on a gate imgp4351 The Royal Oak at Meavy imgp4355 An epic tree outside the church imgp4365 Sis and Matt wait for dinner imgp4366 In the chapel's dining room imgp4369 Mike pours some wine imgp4370 Isobel, Mother and Mike imgp4383 Matt, Sis, Mike and Mother imgp4386 Action shot: Nosher holds a glass of wine imgp4387 Matt, who looks like he's doing a selfie imgp4400 Mike's mini still is on the go imgp4402 Isobel helps out in the kitchen
