If only I could have warned you! It's kind of like 'Nottingham-on-Sea' around here, a day-trippers place.

I took my missus there for the day once at her insistence when she first hit these shores.

Half an hour after parking up we were leaving... :wink: Good old Skeggy. I always wondered why that Fisherman was so Jolly, living in that place.

Ah right, I thought that but the reporter said take off and I wondered why after getting the plane on the ground he'd went up in the air again. Scary stuff.
