Ivydene Hotel Skegness

... to Blakeney &#8211; again me and John have been there before, but mum and dad haven&#8217;t, we look round the book sale and then a small craft fair before taking a stroll along the harbour.<br><br>Last stop for dinner before going back was in Wells-next-the-sea where we go into Whin Hill Cider shop. Mum, dad and John taste some ciders and ma and pa purchase a couple of bottles. Fish and chips for dinner tonight &#8211; yum!

The B&amp;B we are staying in is a small place, it has four rooms &#8211; two of which we are occupying. We go down to breakfast this morning and meet the other residents &#8211; a husband and wife with their mum. We order what we want for breakfast and it is freshly cooked for us, while we wait we chat to the other guests. Afterwards we head for the nearby village of Castle Acre, where we visit the old priory, which is now a ruin and in the hands of English Heritage. We pick ...

... however unfortunately we made it to skegness with time to spare. We parked up and had a walk along the beach front the clatter of fruit machines and the cry of the bingo caller following us down the street as we moved past the arcades. <br> As 7:30 drew nearer I was really looking forward to the laughs ahead and we made our way into the theater and our seats. U19 and U20 right in the middle. We climbed past about 20 really happy people eagerly and not ...

We wnet to Skegness for the first time in 5 years then found out we had booked in at the same Touring site too. Though this was a trip to take Grand-daughters for birthday treats so we raied the internet for Bogoff tockens for Natureland and The Pleasure beach even found ...

... changes remarkably well, and although only a tiny percentage of foreigners will be familiar with the place, daytrippers from the Midlands still descend on the place as if it were their second home. The highlight of this trip was an evening of entertainment at the local Stock Car racing arena, with an extravaganza of sorts lined up for all to appreciate. Various events ranging from domino-style car toppling, to monster truck car ...

... We got the bikes prepped for transport and paid the usual minor fees for paperwork and that was that. Prepping my bike was easy, but we had a real challenge figuring out a way to get Connie&#8217;s bike strapped down properly without causing more damage. With the bikes now off my plate, I started to calm down from the frenzy I was going through. We started the 3 hour trip to see Connie at the hospital and drop off some goodies and get the ...

... can get anything to eat, providing its deep fried with chips. Lucky my cousin saved us from cholesterol overload by providing us with delicious meals. I visited my old home and was shown the actual room I was born in.<br><br>We then caught the train to York where we are staying for the next four days. "ee, ain't it grand"

... than any other band ever&#8230; so they will be special.<br><br>I think I just needed that time off to think and in a way reassess my own thoughts. <br>And it was back to the &#8221;us&#8221; &#8211; I have a place in this crew&#8230; So camera out and into work :D Many of the photos seemed to become very cool.<br><br>The lights, well you know: yellow, green and red&#8230; And some testing with the flash here and there. I woudl prefer to shoot without it though&#8230; The ...

... We were the only tenters. The rain had stopped a bit, so put up the tend and then drove back down the road for some fish and chips- not too bad. After dinner we decided to go for a walk, but it was already so dark we couldn&#8217;t see a thing. The toilets had no light either&#8230;or warm water&#8230; So got into bed, it was only 9.30pm! It was freezing cold, so not the best sleep.

... to dawn on me what I had let myself in for. Looking back on it now it is hard to imagine how I felt, mainly because I now know what I have encountered over the last year, but before I left I was stepping into the complete unknown... anything could happen!<br><br>Anyway, to try and counterbalance the feelings of anxiety I got really really drunk and ended up puking in my tent (which I was sharing with my unfortunate friend Rich).
