The Terriers' Dartmoor Adventure.

After their holiday to the Isles of Scilly with lots of their friends, Bart and Brimble, the two rascals, are off on another adventure - this time on a walking trip across Dartmoor.

As they explore the scenery and atmosphere of this wonderful and ethereal place, they come across all sorts of animals, birds, strange sights and curious objects. And, as they go, they decide to count everything they see.

They hope you'll enjoy counting with them too!

From Haytor to Manaton, Widecombe-in-the-Moor to Buckland-in-the-Moor, Two Bridges to Bovey Tracey, and many places in between, there is plenty for Bart and Brimble to discover.

So come and join the two rascals and find out what they get up to this time...

This is a beautifully illustrated counting adventure for children, Border Terrier lovers and anyone who knows and loves Dartmoor.

Just came across your Scillyold boatman strip while doing a bit of sorting in the bureau. What a wonderful surprise this has been! I hope all is well and that life is treating you well. I was so pleased to find out that some friends of yours are keeping the business running. I'm the woman with the American accent whose dad grew up on the Lizard.
With warm regards and thanks for these lovely memories of yours!

Lovely to read your stories.
Sadly Scilly is beyond my budget to visit these days but so many happy fun memories of your family.

John Bourdeaux gave us a piece of his pottery as a wedding present, it has caused a lot of amusement over the years as to whether it was a shag or a cormorant. We obviously voted for shag. Having read your specifications I do think it actually is a shag apart from the problem of the white bit and the colouring of the beak ...... I think some artistic licence has been used, so I'm still voting shag. We have had so much fun over the years of debating where is the best place to have a (pottery) shag in the house, at present it is in the conservatory.

Brilliant as always John 👏👏

My first ( of 50+ now) trip to Scilly in 1970 involved a trip out to the Bishop on Swordfish ll with Lloyd Hicks ....your father?
The tide was very low and we saw so many seals and birds. Lloyd was so entertaining. We also delivered and received mail for the keepers - (this was years before landing pads and automation )using ropes somehow. I fell in love with the islands that day and have been visiting ever since. My parents ashes are there and that's where mine will be too.
