A week away from blogging as we travel north through the hinterland and into the Arctic Circle for a Swedish Midsommar! With the midnight sun and consequent shortage of sleep I suspect I shall not be blogging much.

“A walker in Cornwall has caught an extraordinary sight on camera. A polar bear has washed up on a beach near Bude,” an excited Miss Naomi Lloyd said. “The bear comes from the Arctic Circle and an investigation is under way as to how it could have ended up there.”
