I am lost without a camera. The one I have only had 6 weeks, the shutter has stuck out, so I took it back to the shop where I bought it, didn’t give her the tiny piece of information that I had dropped it on tiles and she gave me a replacement!! Of course my expensive one, no chance in even trying that one!
Marion’s grandchildren have no idea what seaside rock, the sweet variety, is. They have never had any and so Marion wanted to take them some home. The best place to buy it…..Margate of course. We spent the morning in Margate, bought the rocks, walked around the Sunday craft market and then went to view the new Dreamland. It looks good but isn’t completely finished and also it is £17.95 for adults to go in whether you go on the rides or not. So, if grandparents for instance take their grandchildren and just want to watch they pay £17.95 for the privilege. Locals have a cheaper price. There is also a shop there that sells retro things, games for kids like Jacks. It was interesting to see. We then went to Turner Contemporary as Marion had never been. I can’t say either of us were impressed with Garyson Perry’s work! We even waited for the cymbal bashing. We were underwhelmed by that too!
A walk along the sea front and then we went into Broadstairs.
Time for lunch and some of the restaurants were shut! But we found one in the end where we had a roast lunch for £5.80 and it was so big neither of us could finish it!
We also found a church pop up charity shop that was only in situ for a week. Outside they had quite a large rug for £8. The Cottage we are moving to has a brick floor in the living room and our Persian rugs are in Cyprus, so we bought it as a temporary measure. I am sure Rhys will clean it for me as he has all the equipment. We did get a few giggles as we carried it one each end up the High Street!
Back home and we took Ellie for a very long walk and then watched Lionel Ritchie from Glastonbury.
Meanwhile in Cyprus Mal went for lunch at Kamares with David and Kenny.
