Meldon, Dartmoor

A Visit to the Dentist
A visit to the dentist in lockdown became something of a mini-holiday, an opportunity for a welcome change of scene.
Devon 1989
As a Devon exile living in London I could not resist the urge to travel home as often as I could. And there are so many great places to see.
Teignmouth QM2
The Queen Mary 2 has been anchored off Teignmouth for a few days now, along with a selection of other cruise ships.
Minneapolis
Minneapolis is a clean modern city in very nice countryside with lots of lakes. It is probably not considered by most tourists from abroad as a place to visit, but worth a couple of days I would say.
La Seyne 1982
A working town in the south of France close to Toulon. I spent many happy days here…
Southern California 1990
These pictures were taken over two days – one being a drive from LA to Palm Springs and the second a guided tour of Hollywood, where photos were generally taken from a minibus.
Disneyland 1990
We flew from Heathrow to LAX first class, thanks to an error by the airline! When I got to Los Angeles I had to do something I’d waited for since I was about 5: get to Disneyland!
Sherman Tank on the Beach 1984
In August 1984 I heard that a Sherman tank had recently been raised off the seabed at Torcross. These pictures show the tank being cleaned to became a fixed monument on the beach.
