I brought along one token apple from the tree in our garden in London to add to the batch of cider.

In Teignmouth now. Some cruise ships were moored out in the bay. This is the Cunard Queen Mary 2 apparently.

Back at Dad's house now, and Erika and I had decided to try camping tonight, so I spent a while setting up the tent...

16:20:37
...and then far longer messing around with a tarp to cover over the top of the tent, because the tent wasn't very waterproof.

17:53:35
Much later I think this was the final configuration of the tarp.

18:17:42
I brought a bottle of Chatea Musar 2000, which was fortuitous as it turned out Dad was planning a sort of Mediterranean meal this evening - perhaps more Greek than Lebanese but close enough!

18:42:36
Me and Erika at dinner in the garden, with Dad tending to the barbecue in the background.

18:42:56

18:45:33
Everybody busy eating.

19:51:52
It was nice enough weather to stay sitting outside even after it got dark.

Me and Erika before we went off to sleep in the tent!
