Summer is the time for taking it easy in the shade or taking a dip in the river at Tavistock as many people found different ways of coping with the mini-heatwave.
Popular among the youngsters is a dip in the ever cool River Tavy, while older folk had a slower game of bowls at Sir Francis Drake Bowling Club and some played tennis in full sun. Others found shade under the plentiful trees on the Meadows Park while some enjoyed an ice cream in Bedford Square and sat down on the many benches.
