Plymouth is one of the most romantic places on the planet

Indeed.....my parents met on the Hoe in 1956 (mum is a ex-Janner, although doesn't like the term), married in Plympton the following year and are still going strong 60 years later :-)

Once a Janner always a Janner - tell your Mum to be proud of her heritage, I've been away from God's chosen city since 1991 but I'm never happier than when I return. I have travelled around the World yet for me there is no finer sight on the planet than Plymouth Sound/Mount Edgcumbe from the Hoe early on a sunny morning (........with or without pasty).

Even more so when there were battleships trundling to and fro, sadly that's a bit before my time though!  Smiley

Well it's certainly full. We've got children, buggies, pushchairs and prams!
