A trip to the beach ....

..... in Nottingham! We went to visit my sister and hubby who live in Nottingham and they took us to the beach! Half of the square had been given over to sand (couldn't take photos) but every square inch was taken over with deckchairs and picnic blankets. The water features were full of children playing and the swings and roundabouts were in, well, full swing! Great to see people enjoying themselves. It didn't look like this when I was a student at the uni there!



This was taken at the lace shop, one of the oldest buildings but not open (or maybe they have moved?)

Many thanks M and L for showing us around the stately homes and an interesting visit to DHL's birthplace. Hope you have recovered from the evening stroll M!
