Colin got some new trainers from Blacks, as I felt a bit guilty afterwards! But having not got the photos, we may just have to go to Chichester again!

Today we leave for Portsmouth. All in all, I’m not sure why the south east is so popular, It has one long pebble beach all the way along, mostly dull towns, Yorkshire is actually far more attractive. However we will keep quiet about that as we don’t want all the Southerners moving in, do we?
