Ah, the British holiday!

If you can perfect the art of loving weather, whatever that means, you can truly love a holiday in the UK.

Today I snoozed on the beach, got a sunburnt head, and yet was then lashed by rain as doggo and I walked home. Brilliant!

Watching the storm that hit sweep in over the Scillies was exciting, yet daunting. I knew I’d be getting soaked, but I couldn’t pull myself from gazing at the coming rain.

Sitting in Myn Tea later, looking out to sea. This is the best place to take a few days that I can imagine – and don’t worry, that’s not a lack of imagination, I’ve been to many amazing places, it’s just that nothing beats this.
