Day 16 – Avebury and Silver Hill

4. March 2023

Today we keep with the prehistoric England. The stone circle of Stonehenge you could only enjoy from afar. Now we go to a place called Avebury. There you can touch the stones with your nose and climb on them! The weather was much better than yesterday!

The stones stand in the countryside of England. Nothing can stop a little run around them. The stones are breathtaking.

There are different patterns and you can feel the powerful magic there. For a future Paladin something that he must study.

The area is big. Luckily I took the Lady and the servant with me… STOP you humans sheeps! Really common my Lady! Here is the flog!

Some of the stones are special shaped and sacred fish welles. On them fish treats appear! I must checkout this holly magic!

Next to the stone circle is a little village. We explored it and found some witch craft shops. I bought some powerful holly stones and a magic bowl. Now a boot mage or a zombie army shall try!

After the shopping the humans get hungry. We walked to one of the taverns of the stone circle. I must eat outside! What a shame! But the food was okey and the Lady got some magic metal water can. I agree with this! It stops the plastic mass… It was warm and some human puppy smiled at me!

Next door was the Alexander Keiller Museum. For my surprise Collie-Knights where allowed. I must see with powerful objects are shown there!

Okey the look at stones and pots. How boring! Oh there is a goat bone meal behind the glass!

The Lady has squeaked! I ran to her rescue! Help! Help! A dog skeleton! The show here the bones of a powerful deceased dog wizard! I must free him and bury his remains!

*Bratz* AUA! What at all dog goddess power was this!? The skeleton hat bitten me with magic! I shall not thing about his familiar as little snack and he will not get rescued?! The bonny dog like the attention of the crowd! I shall bring the Wise Wizard of Woof a message?

What?! The last fool of his apprentices bones lay on Silbery Hill he shall collect them. I am a future paladin I will bring the wise wizard the bones of the lost soul! Humans we move to Silbery Hill!

We can’t get nearer? There is a invisible power wall and a banishment circle with bones… Holly dog goddess! Is this thing dysfunctional! We can’t move ever if we touch the ground. We must retreat! The wise wizard must do this! My Lady we must go now!

For the sake of the goddess the humans heard to my words and we shopped some special treats for me!

After this adventures I needed a rest. But the humans was curious about the next village. Grr… something is wrong with my weather spell! I got wet to the bones! It must be the banishment circle that messed with my powers!

Okey you got me… I have done the wrong spell! I should train a bit!

Thankfully the Lady cooked in the inn. It was delicious! Some hearty meal after all this work!

Review

Today we go further in the prehistoric magic history of England.

Travel

The drive was short and fun but nothing special.

Silvery Hill is next to Avebury. You can’t get it really wrong.

Adventures

The stone circle is incredible big. A doggy knight can run free for a while. The village is a beauty and there is a dog friendly museum!

Silvery Hill is only to look at it from far. You can make some pictures and that it is.

Dog friendliness

Avebury is a powerful place where a future paladin can recharge this Energie and have some fun.

Silvery Hill is only to look at it.

Useful information.

Day 15 – Old Sarum and Stonehenge

25. February 2023

Today we made a time travel in the prehistory past of Great Britain. We started with my daily morning walk and then we drove to Old Sarum.

There were so much to see and discover! I climbed old ruins! The view was fantastic.

After this the Lady and I made a patrol in side the old walls.

Short before we left the inner circle the Lady saved me. There was a dangerous oak moth caterpillar!

We moved to the doors and made a short drinking break! I informed a fallower dog about the caterpillar situation!

We explored the outer circle and the Lady removed the leash and I was free!

I mostly lost my sword as the wind start blowing hard. To my luck all left dry. A Collie Cat ehm Knight is not fan of wet fur!

After the run we walked to the car. The day was young and nobody listened as I said there is rain and storm in coming. I feeled it in my bones! I suggest to go to Stonehenge I heard from it while my quest briefing. I tried the >I will see Stonehenge< spell from the magus that toled me to go there is important.

I must have done something wrong with the spell. I found a monument of Captain Eustace Loraine… but this thing is not powerful…

Strange looking huts…

The the male servant questioned my strength. I am a Collie Knight! Look I to you as a pulling expert?

The we moved on and on and on until I saw the main attraction!

Doggy Knights aren’t allowed on the main thing of Stonehenge, but there is a Public Path near it and you can see this amazing stone circle! Okey know I understand what I have magically done. I summoned the rain and storm to remove the tourist from my sight! I had have a clear view most of the time!

The Lady want to go near the stones. The rain increased and it looked like she where dancing as a druid. Some German folks were there and ask in broken English if she had made the rain. She answered in German. I couldn’t hear it well but it doesn’t sound like >My incredible soon to be Palladin had done his magic well<. More like wrong attribution to a weather god!

I must say I have seen Stonehenge and the experience was unique and boosted my powers! But I will close look to my spell devices. The amount of rain was not well maintained. I need endless time to dry!

Add the end of the day we moved on to the Forester pub!. The food was magical!

Review

Today we are looking in the prehistoric magic of England.

Travel

The drive to Old Sarum was short and comfy. There is a big parking lot and the area is free to roam as dog. You can run fast and meet some local dogs. If you will make a break perfect!

The Stonehenge visitor center is easy to reach. The way to the real stone circle is on a very long street and can be draining for very old or young pups. Doggy Knights aren’t allowed in the bus.

Adventures

Old Sarum is good for the hard and mind of a Collie Kight. The maddow is seducing for a fast run. The ruins are calling for a round of exploring. And you will get a water bowl if you ask! The human stuff is very nice! And don’t forget the view! Short AMAZING!

Stonehenge is a must have for many tourists. Doggy Knights aren’t allowed on the real monument, but there is a public path nearby that you can visit. If the conditions are okey you will see the Monument very good! I think to take the time and go looking worth it. Or do you know another German Collie Knight that have seen Stonehenge?

Dog friendliness

Old Sarum is the dream of a doggy Knight!

Stonehenge has plenty to see and to explore. But the doggy knights aren’t allowed everywhere. Driving by Bus is not allowed, too.

If you will eat well go to the Forester!

Day 14 – Berry Pomeroy Castle and Muchelney Abby

18. February 2023

Today they have stuffed up the tin can up to the brim and cleared out the house. I got some extra rounds around the house. Little advice of the burned dog. Overview your servants buy packing and sniff every corner of the house. Especially behind a shellfs. They forgot an imported real bag…

I helped with the recycling.

The Lady got the drivers seat and started the journey!

We stopped at a hidden castle after a short drive. It was in a woodland area with a very rough woodland path before.

There are very imposant ruins there!

The humans booked an audio tour. I heard interesting stories there!

There were horror stories about ghost Ladies in distress! I the fearless Sir Barkalot rushed to rescue of this poor souls!

You can look to different places even if you are not a giant!

There are lots of hills, walls and stones for posing.

The personal is very friendly!

After the tour we continue our journey in the tin can. We stopped at an old Abby!

As Collie Knight you can explore almost everything! The area is big and there are beautiful spots!

Especially the apple trees are tasty eye catcher. One of them has an mistletoe too!

Suddenly the exhibition is very small. You get the original vibes of the place, but a big extra mile don’t worth it.

I learned something about human writing there.

After this we take a close look to the Abby grounds. How the humans can make out of an old latrine a big attraction is to much for my collie knight head.

We drove a while to our new Inn. The Inn is very countriesideish with real free roaming chickens and sheep. It reminds me a bit at home.

The humans made my bedside and I could sleep a bit!

The human stuff start the food hunt process! Sometimes it is better to be a dog! They can make my meal and be hungry.

Some day the humans must sort out how there clocks and the sun function. A pub don’t open by magic if you arrived to early

Yes you got it right! We arrived to early! So we are gone for a walk around the pub. The male servant programmed his app. I and the Lady should know meanwhile that this is not so an good Idea. He has some little issues if he use a map. Out of the 20 minutes that we went walk… we are gone over one hour.

We had luck and got a table even while we are late. You must see what there cames out of the kitchen! It looked and smelled simply amazing!

We mat an older couple that have had an collie! We exchanges stories. I like the Fox an Hound very much!

After this the humans went to the nearest food shop. The Lady was coursing after the arrived on the wrong side of the merchant area. Where no place for the tin can was. After a short time the came back with new food bags. The smelled of plastic and not interesting.

Now I can bed my head to rest. This day was tiring!

Review

We drove to a new Inn and learned a bit about medieval history.

Travel

The drove to Berry Pomeroy Castle was exciting. But it was a bit cramped in the stuffed car and the woodland street a bit bumpy.

The drive to Muchelney Abby was easy. There is a big parking lot on a maddow before.

The new Inn in Salisbury is countriesideish. You must pay attention witch driveway you take. The next village is a bit farer away. Mind the pheasants that pop up on the road.

Adventures

The Castle has a beautiful audio tour. If you have time you should go there!

The Abby is very big and you can relax there. But the exhibition is very small. If you are near take a look. Don’t drive the extra mile for it.

Salisbury has lots of space and some good places where the doggy knight can run.

Dog friendliness

The Berry Pomeroy Castle is very dog friendly you can explore basically the whole castle. The doggy knight must be save on stairs to enjoy all.

The Muchelney Abby is explorable by a Collie knight. You can find little bits of the british history there!

In Sailsbury is the doggy knight welcome. It is a little place with lots of places to hick.

Useful Information

All about Berry Pomeroy Castle you can read here.

Muchelney Abby would descripted here.

If you will eat a delicious meal go to Fox and Hound!

Day 13 – Looe and Pendennis

11. February 2023

The day started unexpected. I could sleep late! The sun shone and the human stuff was ready for a nice walk to Looe!

We walked at the coast path to Looe. We know some good places because of the scouting yesterday. The humans want shopping.

They found plenty of useless stuff and squeaked regularly.

We are now proud owners of a plush sheep and a plush sheltie.

After this the Lady got hungry! No one argued with a hungry Lady. The male servant found a dog knight friendly cafe. The Lady got a >cornish Breakfast<! I call it a meet plate with egg, beans and bread! I went some and got only microscopic crumbs. I protest! I do not consent with such a treatment!

Some local folks greeted me and was over the moon that I speak with them!

We walked through a film set. Maybe may noble body will shown in a English TV-Show.

The we got a very important quest from the goddess of Rain >Buy the male servant a water proved jacked<. First I though this is easy, but after a lots of waiting time later I know it is easier to produce a doggy knight armor as this. After a long time he decided to by the blue jacked and I could finally explore some more of the coast!

We walked back to our Inn and I found some palms! You see right! Palms at the britisch Coast!

We started the thin can and drove to Pendennis. It is a military fortress from the 16th century. It was used until the World War II.

At least the local tour guide said.

My new friend showed me the entrance, too!

We could visit some interesting stuff there. Especially the cannons where nice! Could you see me protect the whole world?

The Lady bought a tool kit to comunicate with local dragons! Hey stop! Why I got this on me!

We visited the castle it self and got a guided tour. It was very interessting only the stairs where steep and small.

We got lucky! We saw a rainbow!

After this we visited the half moon bay. We saw the big modern canons and we walked through the guard ways and big hills.

After this action we are gone back to the shop and the entrance. There was a big bowl of water for me.

Bevor we leave I posed for the shop girls! I am real eye catcher in my armor. I have had not enough Sir-Barkalot-Memorabilien for the requests!

On the way to the car I got a new friend, a local Dalmatian. He was really nice.

Ad the end we made a short visit of Liskeard. The humans were hungry again and it got dark. I got the noble task to watch over the thin can.

If I am honest, short after the humans wehre gone I fall asleep. Please don’t tell the humans! I got lots of prays and cookies for this task…

Review

We explored the coast and the military history of UK.

Travel

The coast path with sunshine is a dream for a Collie Knight. You can enjoy the sea and walk as long as you will.

Driving to Pendennis is beautiful. You can sea very differed landscapes.

Adventures

In Looe you can find things for everyone. There are shops for dog treats too. And one Shop has things for allercial dogs! There is a Cafe where doggy knights are welcome. It is on the harbor.

The military historic tour at Castle Pendennis is a good recommendation. The Collie Knight is learning lots of interesting stuff and can touch some weapon systems with his nose. The shop is very unique and the stuff is great. There you get the dragon communication kit.

Dog friendliness

Looe is perfect for a doggy visit. There are water bowls before shops and there are eating places where I allowed to enjoy.

Pendennis is very dog friendly, too. The Doggy Knight can see and explore everything. The Shop-keeper and tour guides where blown away from me.

Useful information

The Lookout is a place for a good breakfast for a Doggy Knight.

Pendennis Castle is part of English Heritage. If you can visit it!

Day 12 – Dartmoor and Looe

8. January 2023

Looe

Juhu the humans will make a lazier day today! The will wash today and we will look to Looe, the next city. Maybe I can relax a bit today!

I shouldn’t speak my thoughts out! After the morning walk the wash odyssey started. The humans needed my help to find the washing house. And then the started the machine and the timeboxed tour to Looe.

The timebox where two hours. We found the harbor and many interesting shops.

The Lady can’t resist the gambling hall and lost one pound against my strictly advice!

While we looked the city we found shops with fish based treats and a dog shop with liver pate! I animated my stuff to by a lot of it!

The we must run to our laundry! The 2 Hours where over! It is a big advantage to have own fur!

Canonteign Falls

Now we go on. We drove to Canonteign Falls in Dartmoor. That are the biggest waterfalls of Dartmoor and had booked a tour about history and mining. The humans said that there is a big attraction for me! Will it be other doggy knights and ladies? Something special to eat?

We saw the big waterfalls and fern forest. Yes your ears function well the big attraction where ferns! Humans!

For our luck. I managed to convince some fairies to get along with us! But I must nog at some doors to get this running.

There were statures on the way a dragon without wings a deer, a hare and so on.

At last we managed to climb the biggest waterfall with my new english doggy friend. He must protect his lady hard because she had issues with height.

We stopped at a local inn and ate sine Scoons. I suged the crumbs of the humans in. It is not gut to leaf a place dirty!

I would take the armor treasure but the human staff refused to carry it! The the put me on a not working scale!

We had time left from the day and the human stuff was ready to tackle more of the moor.

It was like a safari. Cows appears on the street and sheeps jumps around without fence or walls – breathtaking for every herder.

Foggintor Quarry

We drove to the Foggintor Quarry as it starts to rain. The humans were so intelligent to walk on from the parking place.

I was never ever on so a short distance of a sheep. There were plenty sheeps! I showed disinterest so the humans not see that the herding instinct kicks in!

We walked along a “field” to the entrance of the quarry.

I don’t know that the lady is so good at climbing on rocks. At the start was a point with a steer drop to big for me. The Lady climbs down easily and the servant followed. Only stand at the edge and looked down to high for me.

The male servant carried me to the ground and we could explore the quarry. Here were sheeps to! And this delicious balls of sheep dumplings!

There are some paths in the quarry while we explored it started to rain hard. We were soaked and looked like wet rats as we arrived at the end!

The Lady removed her clothes unlady like. She undressed her trauthers in the Rain on the street! I was beyond shocked! I could only stare at her!

At the way home I suggested to the male servant to buy some thing for dinner. Nothing is better as an real dinner and a tea against the cold from the rain!

In the Inn we dried of and eat fresh cooked dinner.

I personally recycled some left overs.

In the evening the Lady screemed suddenly! She got attacked from a english tick! The nasty beast stuck at her rip!

The male servant was a hero! He got my tick removal kit from the car and removed it. I think the humans should get tick tablets too! Very less drama. Tick bites are nasty!

Review

The day was packed with different activities from beautiful looking to shopping.

Travel

The travel to Looe was fast and easy. If you can take more then 2 hours for the city and the shops. Use the Parkplatz on the other side of the river. The city itself is only for locals.

Dartmoor is like a safari. Take it easy and drive slow to sea all animals!

The drive to Foggintor Quarry is more complex as it seams on paper. Animals roaming the street and pop up everywhere. You must walk a little while. Avoid bad weather.

Asventures

In Looe you can find things for everyone. There are shops for dog treats too. And one Shop has things for allercial dogs!

The historical tour was pleasing. I was allowed to go everywhere. For dogs recemented!

The Foggintor Quarry was breathtaking for all Collie knights a must have seen. There are points to climb and to enjoy! Wild sheeps are running and a lake of clear water is there. For your own safety use a day with good weather. The Quarry is slippery.

Dog friendliness

Looe is perfect for a doggy visit. There are water bowls before shops and there are eating places where I allowed to enjoy.

Dartmoor is balsam for a traveling Collie knight soul. The nature is relaxing and here you can be a dog.

Foggintor Quarry is a real adventure. You need the help of your humans from time to time but it is fun. For older dogs or herding dogs with herding ability it is not so ideal.

Useful information

Humans should ware hiking boots and gear.

Day 11 – Landsend, Penzance and St. Austell

17. December 2022

On more day dawned on my travel. The male servant was going with me to the next bush. And I was so sleepy that I could barely move.

Then the lady got ready for the next drive und the metal horse starts working.

After a bit of time we were at a new part of the coast. It looks different and was called Lands End. What a funny name for the most west point in England!

Our first stop was the tourist center. I tried to breath fire like a dragon. With more or less success. I thought that was a good skill to my paladin character sheet! But the humans found it funny!

After this I inspected a new transportation device. Looks interesting but is louder then a dragon!

The we start to explore the coast. The wind was so strong that I nearly started flying!

I must say the cliffs are steep and the drop is far. Please don’t go to close to the edge!

The the humans made me to a feared pirate!

The male servant had have bad joke day! He tied my to an anchor. Even before I could make a funny thing!

We checked out the area around the farm. There are artists in the farm as well.

One of the clay artists made me a paw print! I got it a few weeks later!

There was a pirate artist, too! We made a photo together so we can’t forget each other.

There were sheeps and pigs! I saw both and I must say boring the were in a coral!

But the landscape was breathtaking!

After this we walked to the real Lands End point. Unfortunately there was no sign because of a bad storm was coming and the sign was demontage out of safety reasons.

But we have a image of the last house of England!

The the humans want shopping. The Lady and I waited for the shop and the the shop closed before the Lady could peak in! We found some interesting things in the other shops!

I was admired and photographed a lot.

After this we drove to Penzance a little city on our way back, We explored it.

The Lady got a new belt!

The we discovered the harbor. But we don’t found something real good to eat.

Because of this reason we drove to St. Austell. I watched the car and the humans were go eating. Because the found no tavern where I was allowed. But It was okay I could sleep! The metal tin is practical for sleeping.

The we drove back to the Inn. I got a good meal and I could sleep!

Review

We review the drive to the most west point of England!

Travel

The drive was lang. One stop or two are needed.

To Penzance we came fast. But you should look at it on a sunny day!

St. Austell is an easy drive, but you need time to get there.

Adventures

Lands End is interesting and a very good place for a doggy knight. You must have see the farm with the pottery and the last house. The sign is optional but a nice to have! We recommend to go to Lands End.

The little city Panzance is good to explore and there are nice shops. But the are closing early. We don’t found something to eat with a collie knight. Take something with you!

We saw not many of St. Austell because it was late. The humans had have a great dinner. I was watching the metal horse!

Dog friendlines

Lands End is a very good place for a doggy knight. The ways are no problem even if the knight is older.

Penzance is not the thing for a doggy knight but there is a belt maker. He has collars and leashes!

St Austell is not so welcoming to we found not the right tavern for all of us. The doggy knight got the important job to watch the metal horse from inside.

Tag 11 – Landsend, Penzance und St. Austell

17. December 2022

Ein weiterer Tag brach bei meiner entbehrungsvollen Reise an. Der Knecht führte mich in der Umgebung zu einem Busch und ich taumelte schlaftrunken hinter ihm her.

Dann war die Lady auch schon bereit für eine weitere große Fahrt. Es ging dann mit dem Metallpferd los.

Ehe ich mich versah, waren wir an einer neuen Küste, und zwar der von Lands End, dem westlichen Punkts Englands/Cornwalls.

Als Erstes haben wir uns das Touristen-Zentrum angesehen. Ich versuchte wie in Drache Feuer zu speien.

Dann inspiziere ich ein modernes Menschen Fluggerät. Ich wette, wenn das fliegt, ist es Lauter als jeder Drache!

Dann begannen wir damit die Küste zu erkunden und der Wind wehte mich dabei fast weg.

Ich muss auch sagen, dass es an dieser Küste sehr weit runter geht! Haltet euch von Klippen fern!

Dann verwandelten die menschlichen Diener mich in einen gefährlichen Piraten.

Der Knecht fand es lustig mich an einen Anker anzubinden! Dabei hatte ich noch gar keine Chance etwas anzustellen!

Wir erkundeten den Bereich um die dort ansässige Farm. In der Farm arbeiten Künstler.

Es gibt dort einen Ton-Künstler. Dieser hat meinen Pfotenabdruck genommen und mir wir eine Erinnerung zugeschickt!

Einer dieser Künstler war als Pirat verkleidet! Wir haben uns natürlich zusammen abgelichtet, um eine Erinnerung zu behalten.

Dann gab es dort auch noch Schafe und Schweine. Ich habe mir beides angesehen und fand es nur mäßig interessant.

Die Landschaft ist aber beeindruckend!

Danach wanderten wir zum eigentlichen Lands end den westlichsten Punkt von England! Leider gibt es kein Beweisfoto, da das Schild wegen Sturmes abgebaut wurde.

Wir haben aber ein Bild vom letzten Haus Englands!

Danach frönten wir der Shopping-Lust. Nervig war nur, das die Lady mit mir vor dem Laden wartete und der vor unserer Nase zu machte, als der Knecht erkunden konnte. Trotzdem retteten wir ein paar Erinnerungsstücke.

Ich verteilte natürlich wieder viele meiner Memorabilien. Man muss ja Werbung für sich selber machen.

Danach fuhren wir nach Penzance, einer kleinen Stadt. Wir erkundeten diese.

Die Lady kaufte sich einen neuen schicken Gürtel.

Dann fanden wir den Hafen. Aber so richtig warm wurden wir nicht mit ihr und auch das Angebot von Nahrung viel eher gering aus.

Deshalb fuhren wir noch nach St. Austell. Dort futterten die menschlichen Diener und ich konnte meiner liebsten Tätigkeit dem Schlafen frönen. Manchmal ist dieses Metallpferd doch praktisch!

Danach fuhren wir in unsere Unterkunft, wo ich mein Abendessen bekam und mich danach ausstrecken konnte.

Bewertung

Heute bewerte ich die Reise zum westlichsten Punkt der britischen Insel!

Reise

Die Fahrt nach Lands End war etwas zu lang für meinen Geschmack. Eine Pause verträgt es gut.

Nach Penzance ging es dafür schnell. Ein schönes Städtchen, aber nichts für einen Tag mit schlechtem Wetter,

St. Austell erreicht man gut, aber es dauert so seine Zeit bis man dort angekommen ist.

Erlebnis

Lands End ist ein spannender Ort besonders die Töpferei, die Farm und die Landschaft sind spannend. Leider wird bei Storm das Hinweisschild abgebaut. Wir können einen Besuch empfehlen!

Das kleine Städtchen Penzance ist gut zu erkunden, hat schöne Laden zum Gucken, aber Collie-Ritter und menschliche Gesellschaft sollten auf die Ladenöffnungszeiten schauen, die Läden schließen früh und auch das Angebot an Gaststätten, wo der Collie-Ritter hinein darf ist gering.

Von St. Austell habe ich leider nicht so viel gesehen. Die menschlichen Diener überließen mir die Bewachung des Metallpferdes nach einer Pipirunde.

Hundetauglichkeit

Lands End ist sehr hundetauglich. Man entdeckt unglaublich viel! Die Wege sind auch für ältere Hunderitter geeignet.

Penzance ist leider nicht so einladend für einen Hunderitter. Aber der Gürtelmacher ist interessant, da er auch Hundehalsbänder anbietet.

Auch St Austell ist nicht so einladend. Richtige gute Tavernen bieten leider nicht die Möglichkeit den Hunderitter, mit zu bringen.

Day 10 – Tintagel and King Arthur’s Hall

11. December 2022

The Lady said the day will be magic. I thing she took the wrong magic mushroom! Magical? I am Sir Barkalot and not the wise Wizzard of Woof. Okey they send me on this quest… but I am not so magical!

The day started with a short walk at the sea and a the metal horse.

The the Lady saw stars. I mean literally! The male servant closed the cargo hatch expediently on the head of the Lady. By all dog gods and goddesses her cry must be heard until Germany. I hided as precaution. She was hurt and furios. I will not stand between a fury and her prey.

Then we started driving over the roads.

We stopped in a small village and explored the Shops and the local bakery. I say only two words Cornish Pastry! So yummy! Even if you got only some small crumbs.

The we walked down a beautiful path until we found a small gatekeeper house.

The humans showed there passports and I drank from the extra made water bowl.

We followed the the path further and found a magical bridge to King Arthurs castle. There shall be the last remains of the castle where Merlin, Arthur and his Knights lived. I was so exited! I am the first Collie Knight in centuries there!

Then the stuff discussed a issue with low and high tide. No idea what this is, but before I could set my feet to the real castle thing, they brought me down a steep stair.

The stair ended on a strand. Where I found new admirer and got some photos.

The the brought me to a Cave that was invested with bats! The called it Merlins Cave und told me that here was the magic done. I posed again.

The male servant fall on exploring the Cave and I had to go through water! Disgusting!

It was scary but cool! Then the Lady and I walked the strand and found beautiful stones and shells.

The we walked the stair up and we meet the local merchants. I gave away many memorabilia and lots of photos where taken.

In the meantime I was hijacked by a little Cornish Dragon. He slipped in my pocket and made him self his home there. His name is Corny Shong.

On the way from the castle I was attacked by a Zombie plant! On of the dangers of England! The Lady came to my rescue and my armor protected me.

Finally we explored the castle itself.

Especially the cliffs where breath taking.

We visited the famous Gallos-Statur.

Samhain is approaching. I was allowed to make some magic rituals for training.

At the end we could explore the outer court yard on the other side of the bridge.

I liked the attention and the many photos that was taken! The payment was good! Treats everywhere!

The the Lady got fippy! Her bladder must be very small. We must hurry down a small path. I had a bit fear for the Lady but we arrived well.

We found an injured jeep driver. I started to give emotional support.

The the humans needed foot again! Why I am not getting food in a restaurant I don’t know. We walked back to the villages.

I got a microscopic portion of Fish and Chips! This doesn’t count as retribution!

Then the humans were shopping. The looked on the clock and it was still to early to get a next meal. The figured out that it was possible to look to King Arthurs Hall too. They started the tin can and we were on our way.

This time we stopped midth in a field. And you will not believe me there were free roaming sheeps, cows and horses! Without any boundary or fence! We walked there and bam. A stone transformed in a sheep!

The male servant walked to a grey sheep through a swampy area… Can a big magician tell him how the compass and the map are working? Or that a magnet interferes with a compass?

Add least the Lady took the job to locate the sight. We found a stone circle. But unfortunately it was closed. An excavation where there and forgot to reopen it after working.

My feeds hurts from the long walking. I was happy to get back in the car. But Oh my doggy goodness are this cattle grids unpleasing – the whole car wobbles and shakes!

After this the human stuff got hungry again. But the Cafe hat already closed because we got late! Than they are gone to a bar and ordered chips and peanuts! A healthy diet looks different!

But I am to tired to discuss this with the stuff. I hope tomorrow it will be less action!

Review

Today I review a magical day!

Travel

The travel to Tintagle was pleased. The walk interesting and varied. Only the evil plants must be destroyed. Take you armor with you to protect your self!

King Arthur’s Hall was an adventure! Everyone must do this with his humans!

Adventures

Tintagle is beautiful and the right thing for a brave Collie knight with out movement issues. There are cliffs and points there are very steep. Unruly young knight should taken on a very short leash.

The magical stone that transformed in to a sheep was the real thing! Everyone must see the look in the human face if the watch the transformation. For robber barons or experts in herding is a lesh obligate! The sheeps, horses and cows came in touch distance!

Day 9 Bridgewater and Millendreath Beach

3. December 2022

The day started with packing, cleaning up and controlling. I was totally confused what the fuss is about. The put my bowls in the tin can. Shall this help to feed it and where should feed I? Will we drive home? To a different place?

The metal horse buck under the weight of the things that was loaded in. My Collie Knight space shrinked significantly.

Then the travel began again. I piked out of the window. We definitiv not driving home. We arrived in a little city called Bridgewater. As usal the Lady needed to find a special pee house…. Why can she not use a bush like every other normal being.

After this business we explored the city and found many little shops and cute places.

We found some historical sights.

Some of the locals are … how shall I call this polite – different. If you will be admired you smile if someone says that there is a noachian deluge every other hunderted years that drowned the whole world.

The male human servant had bad joke time. He said after the travel I would need crane to get moved! Not funny!

The Lady is forgetful! My treat stocks are low! I brought them to a reliable merchant!

The next part was of the travel was nearly endless an than the cost line appeared!

The humans got strange again. They cleared out the metal hourse. How long will we stay here?

The brought me to the magical water again. This time was not so dumb to tasted it again!

But the got me to pose as freebooter.

We visited the local tavern. The humans ate some real crazy stuff and I could try some bits.

The evening we spend together.

Review

Here I review the travel to Englands south coast!

Travel

The travel to Bridgewater was relative easy. But the rest was needed.

The last bit themes to never end. But if a Collie knight travels not the boringst wait stops him!

Adventures

Bridgewater has some nice places and a shopping male!

The Strand Millendreath Beach near to Looe ist breathtaking! I put my freebooter armor ob and entered the beach!

Dog friendlines

Bridgewater is very dog friendly. Many local humans greed a Collie Knight like a King.

Millendreath beach is stunning like it sounds. A must for doggy knights that like to swim.

Day 8 – Bristol und Newport

26. November 2022

What by the everloving Lord has gotten in the humans heads! It is 5 o’clock in the morning after staying late in London! Let a poor Collie knight get his beauty sleep! If you have this kind of servants you not need a foe anymore.

They started the tin can and the drove in the dark of the night to a residential area. And then! The Lady disappeared and I was alone with the male Servant! I was shell shocked! I start to whine. But she refused to come back! The night was so short and now I am alone with him! OMD he often don’t know how he must order his feets and more often he lose the orientation. How should we find our way back to the Lady?

I think those are the dreaded team building measures! I was advised to shine and stay quiet if this happened. Please dog goddess don’t make it to hard!

He brought me to a park, a tower and a port. It is hard not forget a part of the way!

Like I expect. It was painstaking to find our way back!

I was so glad, as the Lady cames back of the get to know meeting with local business people. Some of the new acquaintances admired me! I like to be in the spotlight.

After this we started to explore the area. We saw the University of Bristol and a shopping district. Unfortunately most things were closed because it was still early. And who knows the Lady… will know that she need a puddle place. The servant don’t under stand the problem of small bladders and hold it. Maybe he is like a dog that is often let allown and his bladder is three times bigger than hers or mine…

We found a little Café and had breakfast. My behavior was spot on. I should get a spot in the dog magazine for this.

We walked a bit in the city and found some churches.

And a lovely market. I could explore the outside parts and one human at a time looked in the inside part. I liked it a lot.

After this we looked a bit further, but found nothing real fascinating. It was early then we decided to give a second city a try. We started in direction Cardiff, but there was a traffic jam on the motorway and we mast plan new. We found our way to Newport instead.

Newport is a little industry and port city. It has a big shopping mile and hudad purchases a new Tippomator 500 this time with touch screen.

We strolled through the city to find something to eat and a puddle place for humom again. We got a bit away from the city center and found residential areas. The lady got a bit aggressive after long search for food and puddle place. Theme to me a bit painful to wait so long. The servants ears shaked as she roar. Maybe it is not so ideal to wait until it hurts. After searching she found a restaurant unfortunately it was so late that the food was out, but the puddle problem was resolved. We found now the big transport bridge and take some shots. I am only a little Collie knight but I think it don’t worth the trouble. But the male Servant thinks different.

There was a Inn “near” by. We toke a side and the male servant started to run if the hound of hell where following him. I head to stop him. The Lady was close behind me. I was so a stupid fool! I followed him and don’t take a stop at the kitchen or the meet buffet!

I got caught before I stopped him or could raid the kitchen! And the I was tied to the flower! I am a fearless knight not a worthless born low!

After this incident we went back to the metal horse. We reached our destination and the humans found a sign to the castle. The decide to go to it! Without asking me!

I am a tired Collie knight and this is more walking!

But there are so beautiful mosaics. This worth the trouble! Look at the dogs and the sausages chain!

After we arrived at our Inn the humans start to pack up again. I started to know the land and know we moving again? Where will we go? Go we home?

Review

To day I review to totally different cities. Bristol and Newport.

Travel

The travel to Bristol was short and confi. There were only a few other cares so early in the morning.

Travel to Newport was harder. We got a traffic jam on the only big motorway. That slows the travel down.

Adventures

Bristol is interesting. There are parks and monuments to explore. Unfortunately the area of interest is small. The market was nice. But as collie knight you are not allowed in the market hall. Outside you can explore interesting stalles.

That the Lady let us alone, was an huge insolence!

Newport is interesting and huge industry city. You must plan where and when you get something to eat. The transport bridge is very far away of the city center. Eat, drink and make your puddle before you start.

Dog friendliness

Both cities have less drinking spots for a collie knight. Take you water bottle with you. You can explore many sights and details if you watch for it.

Useful informations

Dogs are not allowed of some areas of the University campus of bristol.

Don’t forget to pack something to drink.

Infos about the Newport transport bridge are here.
