On The Waterfront

Here we're standing quayside in Plymouth, Devon - looking across Stonehouse Creek & the River Tamar to yonder shores of Cornwall beyond - the home of Poldark - yes ladies the one with the bare chest & scythe.

This is the English Riviera.

The magnificent building on the left is the Royal William Yard

This used to be a victualling yard (no? - me neither) - a giant grocery store to you & me which kept our Royal Navy stocked with food (& various liquid refreshments of course) - now converted into very grand overpriced flats but with some great thriving restaurants underneath.

HMNB Devonport is still the home of the British Navy & the largest operational naval base in Western Europe.

We are still here & open for business - never mind what stories you may have heard - we still love our European friends & will always be Europeans - but we've just decided to go Global!

Come & visit us now while the pound is still cheap & you get more bang for your buck! :)

 

Thanks to Everyone who took the trouble to view, comment or fave.
