It had been decided that a further Biggles Club get
together would be great to have in Looe get together again only this time it was to start the
day after Noel got back from a late evening flight from Spain.
The Biggles club, for those that don’t know, was started
a couple of years ago with Noels work colleagues who had retired and decided to
lunch every now and again with the restaurant being used a very nice Spanish
restaurant called Biggles at Denham Airport. We have had other out of town
visits but the trip to Looe had many good things to offer with nice views from
the Hotel and some excellent restaurants and for those who play with golf
balls, a few courses to keep them happy.
So Noel drove down on Tuesday 18th and we all
met up late afternoon for a couple of pints and a very nice dinner in Looe. The
following day Tom and Roger played golf whilst Noel and Tom G did a little
sightseeing and photography and then an afternoon visit to a castle ruin and
then back for a dinner at the Blue Plate restaurant down the coast. A really great
couple of days, indeed.
Jennifer then joined Noel in Looe as she came down by
train and over the next two days we toured around this part of Cornwall and
enjoyed the lovely countryside. We also visited Padstow which has become famous
due to a well-known chef but it was packed to the gills with nowhere to park
and so we left town and went elsewhere.
