they do a 'devon breakfast' that includes a deep fried scone

crappy welcome sign in the bus station. why no illustration? cheapskates

above the bus station is the new(ish) mall, its a strange and ugly looking thing. im so fucking bored with all the "oooh sails and shipshapes" theming. i reckon they'll give it maybe 5 years max before they start building a bigger one somewhere less central, probably on the northern edge of plymouth somewhere. on the right you can just about see the ruined church thats in the middle of charles cross roundabout.

down to the touristy bit, the barbican. this is a Designated Public Place, dont you know.

everything down here is named after the pilgrims. here is the pilgrims ice cream shop, this is where they stocked up on sugar before their long trip overseas.

and this is where they stocked up on gifts and fetish wear, because after all it was going to be a long trip.

mmm chips

why so squished? also, i asked for plenty of salt and vinegar, and there was barely any on there. grrr.

so yeh that was a tour round tourist plymouth, sort of. i get bored fast. heres another couple of random pictures.

dead gull

bench for tired cyclists

now none of you will ever need to waste your time coming down here

oh yeh i forgot this one. this is the sort of crazy crazy place plymouth is. i have no idea what they sell here but talk about a bizarre choice of name.

it looks like it should have 'acme' written down the side, a flaming fuse poking out the back, and a coyote riding it bareback
