Well that's another day done having walked 15 more miles up to
Poughill.

The unchanging Devon hills near Poughill |
The weather started out grey before it mustered the energy to turn into a fine drizzle which it must have enjoyed doing because it decided to really indulge itself and put on some fully fledged rain for me - on with the cape! I'm not sure it liked my cape as it then laid on some wind which, whilst it blew away the rain, didn't half make my cape flap - off with the cape, on with coat! Not one to let a traveller rest it then decided to have some more fun with me by letting the sun come out - off with the coat and on with the sun cream! Funny day really - reminds me of that story of
the north wind and the sun by
Aesop (Google tells me that it is so!). The strange thing is that the hills still look the same despite the different weather, which is not the case in most parts of the UK - some things just don't change in Devon.

Similar - but I was in waterproofs not a toga. |
Anyway, only one and a half more days in Devon then I'll be in Somerset. Fancy that!
