It really was, absolutely tipping it down at the Fox and Hounds at 09:55, but predictably at 09:59:59 it stopped and the sunshine steadily crept in. A very pleasant breeze provided perfect conditions to head up Brat. On to the Foxholes lintel for an early cuppa. The building is slowly crumbling and the fire breast will no doubt fall in a few years. Up the ever interesting workings to Dick's Well and on to Great Links to see the north and south coasts. Little Links needed a visit as well as that other tor - Little Arms, Lydford ... - I don't know. Back to the Fox and Hounds for a leisurely lunch.
