... own life to save those of other people who have got themselves into trouble at sea. They don&#8217;t get paid for this, they just do it and I didn&#8217;t realise until this visit that they do not get one single penny as an organisation from the government, they are completely charity funded &#8211; i.e. donations from people.<br><br>We find a tearoom overlooking the beach to have some lunch in and then move on up the ...

... are going to the bird reserve. By the time we get there we decide its lunchtime and they sell gorgeous Cornish pasties here, second only to the Cornish pasty shop in St Ives in Cornwall, so we sit and eat them before strolling round the reserve. Its very quiet on the bird front here today, we see various wading birds such as Curlews and Oyster Catchers, but other than that there isn&#8217;t much about. We walk out onto the beach at the bottom of the reserve because often ...

... in the audience now laughed, Wow he was really going for it now but it was short lived and very soon the Hammond organ and ***** drummer took Ken into another song with granny smith behind me in accompaniment.... It was all I could take and at 8:02 we left the building, I had made it through about 40 minutes of Ken Dodd which was 39 more than I had wanted to so all in all I had done well.<br>I'm glad I had seen him with my own eyes and drawn my own ...

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 ...

... of the more prominent British seaside town of Skegness, the drama unfolded. This trip was actually a 'family gathering' of sorts, and involved an 'indoor' version of what was to be intended as an outdoor barbeque (blame the weather!), followed by a trip the following morning into the oh-so-bracing seaside resort town of Skegness. While amusement complexes line the seafront, and shops line the High Street, the town itself has weathered ...

... s Connie doing, what if she can&#8217;t fly with the broken ribs, why is the sky blue, why does it hurt when I pee???&#8230;etc.<br><br>I called Connie at her bedside phone, which I had set up the evening before, to see how she was doing. She sounded pretty rough as stiffness had set in, but said she was better than the day before, which made me feel somewhat better, but not much. Mick and I set off on the hour and a half trip to the airport ...

... is also what they do: show appreciation to the other bands, the warm ups or the headliners. That is how they are, and why they are also liked. Well, it is not something taken away from oneself to show support to others too :D<br><br>This evening was maybe the first that I felt that I am an observer, still. So I stayed a bit further and took only wide angle shots&#8230; it took a while to banish that feeling and proceed closer. Close-ups, they are still a bit unique in this process ...

... t even stop to take a picture! We kept driving up towards Hunstanton and watched the windsurfers &amp; surfers from the cliffs in the awful weather. Drove back to see if we could find a camp ground&#8230;.the first one wanted £30per night, thought that was a bit steep! So kept driving on. Finally found a little camping ground near the sear in Snettisham which was much cheaper- £12per ...

Today we had a big party at my Dad's allotment to say goodbye to us and to celebrate mine and my Dad's Birthdays. The weather was great and everybody turned up: Me, Mum, Dad, Katie, Carmel, Paul, Dan, Caroline, Craig, Shona, Rich, Gee, Becks, Pete, Linda and more. We all ate food drank beer and chatted till the sun went down then we lit a massive bonfire. By the time it had burnt down most people started filtering off home and it ...
