Tell Us About....Home Towns

Dear friends. It's time for the monthly Tell Us About challenge. It was the turn of Marsha from Marsha in the Middle to choose the prompt, and she went with Home Towns  (or hometowns as our US friends prefer). 

My home town is Plymouth, in the south west of England. It's well known for a couple of historical facts:

  • The Pilgrim Fathers sailed from what we now call The Mayflower Steps in 1620. 
  • Sir Francis Drake, (now in the process of being cancelled)  was playing bowls on Plymouth Hoe in 1588 when he saw the Spanish Armada approaching.
