Is this the longest stretch of flat road in S Devon? (to the right of the beach)

Other than the A38 you might be right!
I've spent many a sunny, spring morning wandering around Slapton Ley birdwatching.
 
It's not BBQ weather here today either

Regarding the photo, I know a couple of girls (well...... late 30s/early 40s) who'd have that mug, solely out of a desire to wind people up!!

Kirkthorpe Weir, a lovely 1820 stepped construction, on the River Calder has now had a hydro-electric facility built alongside it

I saw the screw a while ago, when it was awaiting final transportation to the site

Are you in the Malmaison?

Bit of a tart's boudoir I thought when I popped in from the coffee place next door to use the toilet.

I couldn't see where I was going and thought about going out again to get my bike light.

Yep
It's a little treat for use, to go posh, but we are not having breakfast here, £14:00 each extra, they are having a laugh.

Aye, it's reckoned to be a nice hotel, but no doubt that comes at a price.

I don't wish to be the bringer of bad tidings, but it was a block northerly headwind on the coast today and the same is forecast tomorrow.

I did about five miles into it, bitterly cold as well.

Best part of a hundred miles in those conditions will take some doing.

Wrap up warm and start in good time is my suggestion.

I know, not looking forward to it,
But I shall put my head down and go for it.:bicycle:
Looking forward to Berwick, as I really like the area.
