We meet up with my brother, Brian, and his wife, Linda, in their super new Rapido A Class.
We are assembling at Dunstanhill Camping and Caravan Club Site (N55.485454, W1.629158), ready to attend Charlotte and Dan's wedding Newton Hall, on Thursday.
We arrive first, while Brian and Linda get themselves set up, we walk to the coast and Dunstanburgh Castle, this walk has apparently been designated as one of the top 100 walks in the country.
Where to eat, there is a choice of two pubs with food, in Embleton, but, The Black Bull / Sambuca, is closed Monday and Tuesday, so, Greys Inn is the automatic choice. Food is very nice, but, the pub is too busy to be comfortable (plus, too many dogs, ie more than zero, for my taste).

Cloudy, but, dry, warm.
We take the bus to Alnwick.
The object of the exercise is to obtain forgotten, but, "essential" hair care items (ie "Three Day Straight", no, I don't know that that is either).
Mission accomplished, we take the bus back, getting off at Craster, to walk the 2-3 miles along the coastal path from Craster to Embleton.

Torrential overnight rain, followed by bright and sunny start, but, eventually clouding over and becoming positively cool.
Bus to Seahouses, walk to Brampton Castle, along the beach.
Lunch in Seahouses.
We discover that there are three, not two, places to eat in Embleton, the third being, Dunstanburgh Castle Hotel, and, this is where we eat this evening.

Thankfully, the weather is kind, mild, sunny and dry for Charlotte and Dan's wedding.
A very enjoyable day, at Newton Hall.

Mild and sunny day.
A "lazy" day, not exactly hung over, but, we (well I) did eat and drink rather a lot yesterday!
