Question Where's everyone gone this week?? Sunny weather or hiding from the budget?

Forum seems unusally quiet this week, I think there is a lot of skiving in the back garden, drinking Pimms contemplating armageddon... I mean the budget...

Everything seems quiet this week. Are there not a few small football matches going on at the moment?

Does anyone else think a Parliament called "the coalition" sounds a bit ominous anyway?

I was on my annual jaunt to the seaside. Most put out to discover that my favourite restaurant has closed down.

Hello Mary. It's always a disappointment when things aren't exactly the same, when we return to a favourite place. Our good memories lead to high expectations. Hope you had a good time, though.

Which seaside did you go to?

Lowestoft, mostly, although we spent a while in Southwold too.

If anyone's in the Southwold area I can thoroughly recommend the Under The Pier Show - a selection of, ahem, rather bizarre amusement/arcade machines created by local inventor Tim Hunkin.
