The Doom Bar   2 comments

Beer wonderful beer

The Doom Bar is a sand spit in North Cornwall that obstructs the entrance to the River Camel and approaches to Padstow. It also gives its name to a splendid beer, brewed in nearby Rock. I’ve been saving the bottle pictured here, since I paddled around Cornwall in the summer.

Now, I am drinking it. Right now. It’s very nice.

I have just this afternoon completed the main text of South West Sea Kayaking; 50 routes and 8 section intros, totalling about 70 000 words. It’s hardly the last of the work, but it’s an excuse at least for an afternoon beer.
