    The going diagonal up a steep hill is something I learnt in Japan watching elderly Japanese riding their bikes up mountains, they zigzagged their way up. I tried it and it works!

    Rain, that's a shock mind....I wish it was a shock this year but more like the norm so far this year. To be fair when the rain stopped and the sun came out it looked great there, although not sure I would want that round as a postman. Despite that steep decent I loved the cobbled road and the narrow streets and a hot Devon pasty would be the perfect excuse to have a rest on the way down and on the way back up! I am going to have to have to give that zig zag method of ascending a go and the cottage was well worth a look around, so nice to see it had not been modernised, same with the chapel of St Peter too! Cheers Alan

    Actually sunny here today for a change. Won’t last. Clovelly is lovely a real timeless village. Er no the postman’s job is not for me. Definitely a pasty. The zig zag really works in steep ascents. Really takes the edge of the gradient. I saw it on a Japanese YT video 🤷🏻‍♂️. Certainly helps my dodgy hip cope anyway. Glad you enjoyed it. Hope you are having a good weekend. Cheers from us both here in Glos vegas. 👍🏻🚶🏻‍♂️🚶‍♀️

Oh what a clever idea- a sled! 👌Gorgeous views...but watch those cobbles. Drat that rain- such a pity, though the skies are awesome. I love how most of the houses are white. Nothing like fresh fish for dinner. Gosh I feel so silly. We were so close here last year- never went 😱! What a mistake that was. Loved the wee fisherman's house and chapel. Really cool relics from the past. Haha invisible donkeys. What a great promo for Clovelly. Have an awesome week. 😎👌🙋‍♀🥝ps. shared on Community!

    Hi guys now that is a lovely village. Absolutely loved the cobbles and the cottages were just fabulous. Wouldn't fancy it in the winter bet those cobbles are very slippy. The view over the sea was wonderful. Good work doing that hill back up again. Great you can go into some of the cottages for a look around weren't they great. The attic was a bit of a climb well done Kim . Pity they didn't have any donkeys as they would have been useful to get up and down.

    Lovely little town, very picturesque. It emphasised again to me how many places in Australia have place names from the UK. Adelaide has a suburb called 'Clovelly Park' I had thought it was named after a Mr Covelly, as lots of town planners named places after themselves or a patron. Now I know it's a town in Devon!
