Having recently spent a wonderful week in Dorset, I wish to share my experiences in a day by day account of the time. Don't expect tales of drunken debauchery; substance abuse and naked sunbathing (I did all this the week before) so here goes:
Sunday 16 June
After a 6 hour journey, my wife and I arrived at 2 Heath Cottages (B&B, 2 miles from Wareham) at approximately 3pm. We were met by Denise & Sean (owners) and shown to our delightful en suite room which was to be our home for the next week. My wife (we shall call her Connie from now on) suggested we leave the unpacking and head straight for Monkey World Ape Rescue Centre. We have a yearly pass which includes free admission. We spent an hour there catching up with our adopted chimps then headed into Wareham town centre for something to eat. We ate a Sunday roast in a pub which shall remain nameless. The food was OK but the service was dire. Unfortunately, we had a waitress who was more interested in smoking and laughing outside with other customers than serving us. Fortunately, this would turn out to be our only poor dining experience in the whole week. Later, we returned to Heath Cottages, unpacked and stayed in for the rest of the evening. End of day 1.
