Journal for Georgia (2)

Sunday 4/7

Rainy / misty day.  George and I went to Bishop's Palace.  Met Mum at the Refectory for lunch.

Fell asleep in Secret Garden... - showed Mum the tapestry.

Walked to Richards to discuss cottage with him.  Late dinner @ The Farmers - half pint prawns and nachos.

Monday 5/7

Georgia came to house earlier than arranged - had read timetable and we needed to catch an early bus to Porthgain, which we did.  Had coffee and croissant at The Sloop.  Easy walk to Abereiddy - lost coast path - came out at Porth Carreg - limping guy showed us where to pick up path.  Big but beautiful walk.  Saw seals near St David's Head.  My feet feeling very squishy!  Lost path again & had to hunt for Cromlech - saw it from the steps.  Trudged into Whitesands - powercut - no lunch!  no coffee!  Milk, cake & fruit - bus to St Davids.  Glorious last supper at the Bench:  dolce latte salad, basic pizza & fungi ravioli.

Tuesday 6/7

George and I catch bus to Haverfordwest.  Saw Bethany - Richard hailed bus to get her to school - kissed Georgia goodbye.

I had omelette at station.  Waved goodbye to George.  Wandered around Haverfordwest but heart not in it - still tired from day before.  Went to Lidls to look for chocolates.  Caught bus home.  (Had coffee & chocolate twist in Haverfordwest - very hungry!)

Wednesday 30/6

Dave, Frances, Mum and I to Tenby - Prince Charles and Camilla there for Fish Week.  Mum & I to Caldey Island - disgusting tea room.

Georgia arrived approx 9.15 pm - Dave and I picked her up from Haverfordwest - 'death on the line' at Reading.

Took Georgia to Uncle Dai's, then went for a double-dragon at The Farmers.  Went for a walk around the cathedral and up Quickwell steps.  Smell of garlic... Saffron, Indian restaurant just closing, allowed us to have a glass of wine and garlic naan.

Thursday 1/7

Georgia and I went to fish print-making workshop at Info Centre - Debbie Withey - Cheese and Pickles.  12 - 2.30pm.

Went to Grove for dinner but fully booked - went to Farmers instead - fish pie & ham, leek & chicken pie.  Left George to photograph cathedral, etc.  Breakfast @ Bench?

Met lady from workshop at Refectory for afternoon tea - she showed us the Pembrokeshire Tapestry.

Friday 2/7

Climbed Carn Llidi.

Mum, George and I caught bus to White Sands [see Georgia's blog].  After climb, had lunch at cafe - pannini.  Caught bus the long way  home.

Booked table at Grove - but a quiet night.  Shared 'blanchebait' with George, then she had Welsh lamburger (like a sausage), I had more seafood bits.  Terrible chips.

Breakfast @ Bench?

Georgia stayed at the Coach House.

Saturday 3/7

St Davids to Porth Clais to Solva

George and I set out to Porth Clais but kept walking to Solva.  Blue grass on outcrop after Carbydi - soft tussocks as I remember them.  Went to Royal George for lunch but not doing food, to Harbour Inn - another Brain's pub - blue vein cheese sanger and shredded cheddar cheese sanger!

Tapas @ Bench?

George at Coach House - rebooked for Uncle Dai's.

George - I've lost all of your St Davids photos since the laptop was stolen.  If you email some, I'll add them in the blog.
