04/04/25 - Towan Head, Pentire Head, Fistral Beach for the Best Western at Newquay

Professional Dog Sitting - A Proper Job

Too scared to look at what the Orange One has done to my long term financial planning, we are forced to take on a job.

Dog Sitting. 

A return visit to Mawgan Porth to see if Ruby and Wolf remember us. 

Needing supplies, we head out to Newquay for the big shop. 11 years since my last visit, it felt tidier and less sleazy than before.

Maybe we just picked the best area to walk - the farther part of a couple of headlands and a Cruffin (don't ask) at a cafe overlooking the home of British Surfing, Fistral Beach.

There is just the one Good Beer Guide pub in town. We are at the wrong end - at least a mile and a half away. A silent bet with myself on how far we get before Mrs M mentions how I dragged her all across Stroud for a tick. 

3/4 of a mile.

The Best Western is a hotel, with a rambling bar. Saved by several things well done.  By chance, the views from the Terrace bar. By design, a doggie station with help yourself biscuits and water and for the humans, an excellent Proper Job.

An evening back at Mawgan Porth, enjoying the fruits of the big shop.

We might be professional dog sitters, but we still cannot get them to pose for photos.
