We drove south towards the coast in Dorset to Corfe Castle through the Piddle Valley past the towns of Piddletrenhide, Piddlehinton, Tolpuddle, Alfpuddle, Puddletown along the Piddle River. Fortunately, the drive was short so we didn’t need a toilet stop. Corfe is in ruins but the family who owned it built Kingston Lacey which was bequeathed to the National Trust. In the glorious sunshine both places were terrific. I helped Daphne with some gardening after we arrived back. Need to get in practise for when we get home.
