WildCurl


Hi all, it was my parents Birthday last week so we celebrated in style at the Broomhill Jazz evening, with sweet sounds, delicious food, great company and inspiring surroundings what more could we want! My sister Lolly came up from Tavistock to visit on Saturday so Mum treated us to lunch at Zena's in Barnstaple, yum! Joel made a really strudy shelter in the forest for his brother and friends to sleep in during his 17th birthday bash. Sunday saw Joel head in for a surf at Croyde with friends while i cycled from Woolacombe to Croyde to get back into the swing of full on excerise.
Now its back to work with lots to do, i am currently planning the next phase of my website www.wildcurl.co.uk, an online guide to North Devon. Check it out to find events, activities, accommodation, restaurants and much more!

Keeping it local

We cycled over to the village next to us last week to visit Westhill farm to pick up some cream and eggs. It's a cool system where you can pick up what you want, such as milk, cheese etc... and put what it costs in a money box. www.westhillfarm.org

We went to RHS Rosemoor Gardens near Torrington on Saturday with family and friends. They were holding an open day focused around growing your own fruit and veg. The gardens were packed with people keen to pick up new tips on composting, planting etc... Below are a few pics from the day. Joel went with a youth club to Cornwall today to an indoor skate park called Mount Hawk, it is such as shame that we don't have an indoor skate park of equal quality here in Devon as we have so many skaters. I had an easy day today but braved the wind to cycle over to Croyde to see a few friends.

Hello!

The results were announced last Tues in Exeter and as expected Anne took the prize, so well done to her!
No doubt we will meet again and perhaps team up in promoting our fantastic area.
We have already said a few thanks for help with our campaign, but here are a few more.

Thank you!

Many thanks to all who supported us in our lovemydevon campaign (promoting Devon in January this year). We could not have completed the task without the generosity and kindness shown by people in Devon; whose love for the county really spurred us on! We find out who will take the prize on Tuesday 3rd March. Win or lose, it has been a great experience and we are very grateful to all who supported us.
