Soggy Bottoms

We’re in Poole. True to forecast, it poured with rain all morning and we got soaked. Hills are handy when you’re wet and chilled. Slogging up a hill will warm you up nicely. Fortunately the rain stopped over lunch, but then came down again in torrents as we were coming into Poole. So glad we had a nice shower and comfy bed to look forward to, instead of a wet tent, which people keener than us would be doing.

Brief respite from the rain

Rye or barley or possibly wheat. (At least we know it’s not turnips.)

Grumpy cyclist eating a Mars bar instead of a pint and pub lunch because we couldn’t find a pub.

But then a miracle happened… Outside a nice village pub.
