Day 12 (April 14) Crackington Haven to Tintagel
Received a very kind offer from a reader of the blog offering a toe from one of his grandad's piglets. No, it wasn't from Del Boy Trotter!
Cathie & John travelled up from Truro & spent last evening with us, thank you both for your support. The six of us had a good meal in The Coombe Barton Inn last night but we all drank too much except for Jacqui who taxied us back to the campsite. Surprising I was the only one suffering from a hangover this morning.
Melv & I left Crackington Haven in lovely bright sunshine and soon stripped down to single tee shirts. It stayed like this until Boscastle, a delightful little harbour with a few small fishing boats. However this is where the weather took a turn for the worse. We had hail, thunder & heavy rain. Despite our waterproofs we got soaked; it even permeated our guaranteed waterproof boots. Thankfully the girls were very sympathetic when 2 drowned rats reached the campsite at Tintagel.
Tonight we are dining at a local Indian restaurant.
Do any of our readers know the name of Tonto's horse?

Hi Pete, glad to see that its all going well, although I'm a little concerned that the emphasis seems to be on the nights out and not the walk...... oh well nothing changes.

SCOUT !! - though I have to confess to googling the answer - my memory remains as unreliable as ever ! Heavy rain/hail here as well yesterday pm & I think it would have tested most waterproofing. Lovely morning for a walk today though.
