Amongst the sun worshippers
... bar where there was live music every night. On Thursday it was blues and on Friday and Saturday there was a fairly accomplished rock band playing. Everywhere was busy and once again we marvelled at the number of holidaymakers there must be in the town to support all these businesses.
