The turntable at Minehead - this used to be at Pwllheli, it has been lengthened slightly.

I took at few videos.

We also took a trip from Liskeard to St Ives changing at St Erth. We travelled on an HST.

The weather was great. In Minehead we sat out on the balcony most days and managed a few on the balcony in Looe. Cheers Graham
