Lyme Regis


Well today Julie picked up her new car and we decided to go for a nice long drive to a little town called Lyme Regis.

First stop though was the local DVLA office to change my licence over. Thinking it would be nice and easy I had my 40 quid ready and expected to walk out of there with a nice shiny UK photocard licence. Well it was not to be. First off all licence applications have to be sent of to Swansea (a la Yes Minister) for processing. Secondly they would have to take my passport for the next three weeks. Not wanting that to happen I decided to hold off for a week or so.

With that behind us, we headed off to Lyme Regis. It is in Dorset and about two hours from us here is Southampton.

Well we had a great time there. Despite being fantastically cold it was a beautiful seaside village known for its little harbour (called the Cobb) and its clotted cream teas (which are yummy).

After walking around we decided to treat ourselves to one of these teas before coming home!

It was a grand old day.
