We drove to Romsey, arriving at 11am. We had a coffee and then went for lunch with Vera at Prezzos. Wendy came round in the afternoon, followed by Ian and Nicky. We had a chat with tea and mince pies, but the pastry on the pies was too thick.
We left at 5pm to drive to the Alexandra hotel at Lyme Regis. The hotel was grand and very nice, and on arrival we were upgraded to the best ‘Duchess’ room, as there were few other guests. The room had a panoramic view over out over the coast.
Dinner in the restaurant was good. After dinner we walked down the steep hill to the harbour, and explored the harbour and went out along the Cobb.
Coming back to the hotel we heard tawny owls calling.
