Something of a milestone today! My wife had a spinal injury a year ago, followed by major spinal reconstruction in September so hasn't been able to get into the Morgan for over a year ...... till today  ! first little outing for her - got into and out of the Morgan without assistance and enjoyed a nice, reasonably comfortable, run out to the beach at Exmouth for a walk. So many camper vans in the car parks and people on the beach, most doing their best to socially distance themselves, but some, of course, ignoring the rules! Mmmmm - so it seems. Devon & Cornwall gridlock

They were the silver and black Rostyle ones that were fitted in the early 80's, but they came as all silver on the car when I bought it last year.

Splendid 127 mile drive around the North Norfolk countryside with picnic lunch. First stop Great Bircham windmill. Hot drink take outs to order. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/VFYjxSH.jpg) Then on to Lavender fields just south of Hunstanton but closed and not much to see so onto north coast. Layby en-route. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/2mY6aVZ.jpg) Burnham Overy Staithe, lunch stop. Rear looking a little naked without luggage rack and overriders, as re-painting rusty mounts of latter. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/pghVfZQ.jpg) Burnham harbour ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/TZ1h0FI.jpg) Three and a half mile walk to beach and back to work off lunch.Tide out leaving shallow paddling area. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/mq6h6sg.jpg) Final visit to Wells (not very) next the Sea. Car park closed so just passed through. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/rSMF3Z3.jpg)

Spent a delightful afternoon exploring small lanes all within 5 miles of home, delivering medicines to those still self isolating. It seems I'm now on the list of volunteers at my local surgery/dispensary. Three of the drops were at the houses of people I know, so a good natter. and catch up.
I now have increased respect for "white van man". Most houses here have names and no numbers, there is no logic and sat nav programs don't do house names. Postcodes are not specific enough. So for two I had to ask neighbours.....
This sort of trip brings sharply into focus the frailty of many, and made me realise just how fortunate I am.

That would explain it Les - so used to seeing them with the black those threw me!

Well done Peter, interesting. Like you we’re both very fortunate, even if we are still self-isolating - our 12-weeks are nearly finished!

We saw on our usual walk some lovely asparagus for sale locally but had no money on us. So I volunteered to go back in the Mog & buy some. A very large bunch for £2 plus a lovely ride. ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/05/21/DSC08040.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](https://www.tm-img.com/images/2020/05/21/DSC08041.jpg)

Restaurants and cafes are open again. I checked the city center of Vienna: still reduced traffic, there were almost no tourists, plenty of space available, no problems to find a parking place. ![[Linked Image]](https://up.picr.de/38592097cg.jpeg)
