Sunday 18th and lovely Exeter





Exeter really does feel like my city and Exeter cathedral is my cathedral. It smells the same, sounds the same and feels wonderfully familiar and comfortable.
Anyway, NAt and I headed into Exeter to meet Jane and Sue at 10.30am. First stop, Princess HAy and the new shops. I bought an English sheep tea cosy - don't ask me why but its cool believe me. SEcond stop food and something to drink, then PriMark the new great TK MAx and home of CHEAP clothes - £1.50 for tee shirts. Suitably grossed out and repulsed (but tyring hard to stem the retail madness) we then went to Laura Ashley and then had a picnic on Cathedral Green. Fab butternut squash, feta and sundried tomato salad and french bread. NAt B, her husban MArk and baby daughter Sophie met with us and then the girls headed off the Quay to look around. It was a wee bit of a weird experience then walking back past the old flat but it was a super day and after a quick coffee NAt and I headed back to Exmouth and popped in to see Nat's mum. Tomorrow is Cornwall and a bit more of a relaxing time. IT really has been totally cool and super to see darling friends and to laugh and giggle.
