Overnight the heavens opened and we must have encountered around 50mm of rain and very strong winds.
The awning and Sue’s tent survived relatively unscathed but our pitch at one point did turn into a lake.
By mid-afternoon the rain had subsided and the sun shone for a brief few hours. Long enough in fact to cycle into Brockenhurst and procure a few items for an evening BBQ. The previous night we had eaten at the “Snakecatcher” pub and enjoyed a mixed grill – one where you cooked your own meat on the supplied volcanic rock plate.
Here are a couple of pictures taken on the cycle ride yesterday.
