Plenty on snow in Helmsley and surrounds. Had a white drive to Robin Hoods Bay on the coast. Pub for beer and chips. Then up north to Whitby for lunch, and a bit of browsing in town. The further north to visit Eileen's cousin Tim with wife Maxine and children Anthony, Louise and Charlotte (and dogs). A great evening catch-up up and having a few laughs. Getting serious recommendations about NOT travelling to Scotland with all the poor weather. Oh dear.... read more

Today we headed up north to Licolnshire to visit family. 40 minutes into our travel Daniel realised he left his wallet (with 100 pounds) back at Hastings. So after ringing the owner we had to head back. Finally reached outer London to visit Eileen's Uncle and then onto Lincolnshire to stay with another Uncle and Aunty. More details in the 'Private' entry. Going to use private entries now for photos and names of family.

Did a bit of shopping in the morning and then went out to Bodiam Castle - one of the most famous and photographed castles in England. So we thought we should overwhelm you with more photos. It was great. Kids were more interested in the ducks I think.... read more

Drove to Brighton today - the town where Eileen was born and left at age 6. Went to the main pier where there are a couple of amusement centres and rides. We had lunch there as well. Was warned about the seagulls by one of the staff, and sure enough I was hit. Was walking along about to take the last bite of my samosa when a gull flew in from behind, grabbed the food from my hand and swiped me with a wing. They have been trained well. I was a lot more weary with the rest of my meal. Made our way to where Eileen lived, including the infamous site where Eileen was dragged down a hill by the pet dog after her sister Trish called the dog down - deliberately. Eileen lost a ... read more
