Exeter

As I suspected, the planned surprise weekend away was to Dartmoor; what I hadn't expected was to spend Friday afternoon in Exeter! I did what I like doing in Exeter: bought clothes and watched the world go by over a cup of coffee overlooking the cathedral - well what else is Exeter for? Actually we also went to Phoenix to see a photography exhibition, which was nothing to get too excited about! Lots of b&w pinhole images of laboratories that reminded me of the school chemistry lab - ugh! Who wants to be reminded of being threatened with the Bunsen burners and having stools pulled out from under you - and a strange, very boring man in a white coat? Not me that's for sure, and these photos still didn't make lab life look any more interesting than it was way back when. And I didn't get to go to Spacex this time either - it was closed for rehanging! So, after a day lolling about it was off to the moors.

I poked myself in the eye with a broom handle before we left.

Earlier that day I'd smashed my toe. Don't ask...

Not content with the already self-inflicted injuries,
Kim tries to pull me over for some more.

aaah, Kim gives good hugs!
