A photo of a pub on Exmoor will always get my vote! And a mighty fine pub too! How crazy that Sara's grandfather thatched the roof - small world! Congrats on the TT! You sure managed to fit plenty of great locations into your trip.
My grandfather thatched this in the 1950s!!!!! He was quite an interesting and somewhat eccentric character - an atheist with a theology degree from Cambridge and a socialist intellectual. He enlisted under age as a stretcher bearer in the First World War, after which he became a life long pacifist and conscientious objector during WW2. I'm not quite sure when he turned his hand to thatching - for most of my mother's childhood at any rate. He gave up when he fell off a ladder and broke his back.
what i really like about this is the sunlight .. the shadows .. the way i've been taken into another world just about .. and the those roofs ..
how amazing are they .. the potted plants hanging .. so cute .. and the sky ..what a great backdrop to this scene .. :)
