Lundy, Lundy Meet

We drove down to Bideford overnight and were ready for the boat at sparrow fart o'clock.

The crossing was memorable for Dave being a little under the weather and out of it on tablets supposed to control an infection in his elbow.

Soon after we "docked", or more truthfully jumped across to the motor boat to take us ashore! we headed off up the hill and across to Devil's slide ..  On our last trip over we had found this to be a good introduction to the climbing on the island.

We all made a number of climbs on the "slope" - rather like a beached aircraft carrier rising out of the sea.

Dave and I completed the slide as well as the slip and Albion - a further route up the left hand edge.

Then it was back to the village to pick up our tents and pitch them in the campsite, dinner then to the bar.
