On a recent holiday to Dartmoor Merle visited the Devon fishing village of Brixham and reflected on lessons we can learnt from its turbulent history, in particular the length of time it took to complete the breakwater to the harbour wall.

Don't get caught out
Weeds growing out of sight in Merle's garden caused her to reflect on how easily we can get caught out by putting things off and the effect that has on others.
