Technologically challenged for the next four days. Titchy internet allowance on my phone, no 3G on the iPad and limited WiFi hot spots as we troop from one place to the next! Maybe at McDonald's later tonight I can get this to send? Left Barnstaple with more tears on the platform (none on the train sorry) and so started the, [...]
