(but we all knew this already, didn't we)

I was tempted to post this in the PPGA thread, the third paragraph seems quite appropriate.

It would just give them the idea to move the rebuild of the school to nearer the sea, or indeed in it i fear!

I'm sure someone did suggest that, though it may have been tongue in cheek
Turfing the buses out of Marine Garage, does that ring a bell?
Taking over the Indoor Bowling and football site?

I do love living beside the sea, I regularly send relative updates on what I see from the window.
Swimmers, with or without wet suits,
kite fliers,
boats,
seagulls dropping shells into garden to open them,
people taking pictures beside a cardboard cactus,
meerkats dancing,
pirate on the groynes...
Downside I found recently is house insurance, some sites penalise if you are within 400m of water.
