... I even saw a picture of the bathing compartments pulled by horses into the water so people could swim without anyone seeing them in their swimmers. I'm presuming it was for the women! I also presume their swimmers were neck to ankle... lol what would they think these days!!<br><br>I was going to have lunch on the pier but they weren't selling any food.. ah well you can't have it all your own way!

I had an extra long surf first thing in the morning before we headed off. Although it was small in I really enjoyed it. I had tried to convince Kim to stay for the forcasted HUGE swell in 2 days time but I knew that we had places to go and things to see and that it really was not on the cards. So it was time to head back east.<br><br ...

... we went into the club. Where they were just finishing off the kids club show. We had a three piece singing group and then two comedians. I think the entertainment startedabout 9 and went through till about 1. In the club they had a kids amusement centre, with pool tables, dance machines and arcade games.. we went through a lot of 2p coins than night!! I was really surprised at the amount of entertainment there. A lot of fun for a big kid like me!!

... I went to the Haynes Motor Museum at Sparkford, great few hours including a smashing lunch and back to Yeovil to pick up the ladies at the appointed time of 3.30 pm.<br><br>Tuesday dawned rather foggy and overcast, probably our worst day yet. Lona wanted to go to Lyme Regis to find a model dog for Kim. One time we were here before we bought her a Boxer, so this time Lona wanted Schnauzer, to no avail, there were none ...

... erectors Karen & Eric who we had meet through Karen's support website Behind the Gray not even a year ago and oh how glad we were to know them and have them come visit, we would never have managed to get it up on our own, it would probably be at some refuse tip now!! So a huge "BIG THANK YOU" to Karen & Eric. To say the weather was bad would be a bit of an understatement but it was typical bank holiday weather rain rain and wind and yet ...

... She's going to put out an article to 8 different radio and TV companies as well as other local media. Scary stuff, but hopefully it will generate a bit more interest and hence a few more donations. I think I may have had my stupidly optomistic head on when I gave the figure of £10,000 several months back. The 2 dropping out didn't help and our costs have been significantly higher than I was expecting. For a start I ...

... to make the bus a living thing, rather than just a pipe dream. Still much work to do on the bus. I need to find premises that are big enough for the bus and don't mind a bit of mess from a respray. Could be tricky. The interior cleaning should start next week and hopefully the exterior too. The scrounging continues. We now have a carpet lined up and I may possibly have a gas powered fridge. Got to have cold beer in the desert.....

... nearly 40 years! <br><br>We decide that rather than take our car again, we would go by rail. This would then compell us to continue by rail and other public transport methods. We chose to go on a Great Rail Journey with the company of the same name. Taking the Glacier Exprees package choice we set off for Waterloo Station in London, from our local station at Yeovil Junction early on a late June morning. <br><br>This is the story of that trip, its sights and its 'wonders' !!!<br>

... and return via<br>Netherlands. Unfortunately the Grimsel and Furka, even in mid June were<br>both still blocked by snow and we had to detour to Montigny and thence<br>over the St Bernard Pass and down to Aolta. <br> Of that whole journey, which I will one day, if time permits relate to you, we were<br>most impressed by Switzerland. At the time it was the most expensive<br>place in Europe ...
