Weymouth to Torquay

So having arrived in Weymouth our destination for food for the evening had to be Chinese  One of our faves is the Ming Wah in the high street and so good was it, we left a good tip. We decided after some debating whether to move on to the west or go home but now we are in Torquay and are staying 2 nights as the weather is iffy but its still very warm and close.  Went for just a tapas last night and tonight as we had a lovely meal in Painton this lunchtime where i had a very fresh plaice and Bill had haddock in a very crispy batter it was a lovely lunch.  I also went to see the Harbour master there to get the SP for going there in the future because it is a lovely harbour.  His name is Simon and his oppo is Sam and we shall probably go there on the way back home.

The next thing I have to mention is Mike in the MDL Harbour office in Torquay.  If you ever come here by boat he is he best man to help you in guiding to the allocated berth and very happy to accommodate freezer blocks in his freezer to assist you with your cold box if you have one like we do.  His Oppo in the evening we met is John and he was very helpful too and obviously they have a good chain of staff that help people in the seafaring community.  How great is that ??

So tomorrow we plan to go to Dartmouth in fact we shall go to Dittisham for the night and eat onboard my spag bol i prepared earlier before we left that was frozen but no defrosted.  the pasta is in the cupboard to be cooked al dente but we have no parmesan so i think my cornish cruncher cheese will suffice !!

Thank you to Torquay Marina for your great service, Mike, John, you will be remembered.  It was a pleasure being here.
