Mooching

We had a little mooch around Minehead this morning.

We want to do the Quantock Bell Dining Experience of the Steam Train. In the 9 and a half years that we have owned a van at Blue Anchor, we have never been able to match a holiday up to the dining events that they do, and we were hoping that this Summer was going to change that.


While we were in Minehead checking out the timetable, Paul took the opportunity to have a check over the steam train that had just pulled in.


While we were having a wander the coal was replaced in the engines bunker.

Anyway, getting back to the reason we were here – You guessed it our holiday does not match up with the nights that the dining evening are being held.

There is one in August, but that falls on the Saturday following the Falmouth Boat trip with the fivers, so is out of the question.

Better luck next year eh?

Oh what a shame Jo. Hope you get to do this soon.

We have the Severn Valley Railway by us, the old trains are lovely.

Strangely enough my neighbours have just spent a week at Minehead in their camper van! What a coincidence.

Enjoy your travels.
