I know when I’m beat and we head on over. The dogs are allowed inside, and as pleasant as the beer garden is, inside was beckoning as the sun retreated behind a cloud. The toasted sandwiches were rather good and at 12.15pm we make our way into Dulverton.
Once done we drove back to Dulverton to have a bit of a mooch. We bought some new blinkers for the hounds and some grape juice for Herself, before making a bee line for the Bridge Inn for some refreshments (including the obligatory bag of pork scratchings for the dogs)

Herself sorts out a breakfast of scrambled eggs before we hit the road today towards Glastonbury. Traffic was heavy and it took us some time to get there.
Herself loves the place and whilst I quite like it for its eclectic mix of people, there are a few too many witches about that give me the ebejeebies. If your weekly shopping list contains items such as a voodoo doll and frogs feet, then I'm afraid you frighten me.
Mind you, some of those I went into I wished I hadn't. Not the witches behind the tills, but the prices they were charging for some of the stuff, I mean, £750 for a meditation chair????
We return to site and stop long enough to walk and feed the dogs before shooting over to the Anchor Inn once more for an evening meal. I went for the light option of a full mixed grill and washed it down with a few pints of Thatchers.
Back at the van I immediately set about the task of sleeping it off, waking at 10pm just in time to go to bed.

Saturday 31 October
Up early this morning after and early night last night. We have broken camp and are hitched up and handing in our barrier code by 9.15am. The warden is very friendly, perhaps after 3 nights he's now realised that we are not the villains that the previous wardens had made out. Obviously too late for us to be invited to their cheese and wine party that they held in reception last night, to which many of the other caravanners had been invited.
We're cruising towards J27 of the M5 where we stop briefly for fuel before joining the steady flow of traffic. The 152 mile journey was uneventful, exactly how you want it towing a 1.5t tin box, and we're pulling up outside home at 12.15 pm.
We've had a wonderful week again in the West Country, until next time ...
