    Well Simon and Will you certainly did Beaumaris justice, we've had many a happy nights away there and plenty of good meals out, particularly the Mussels straight from the sea 😋

    I lived in the Melbourne Australia suburb of Beaumaris which we pronounced "Bomorris". Presumably named after this town.

    Our family love the amazing charity shop on the corner, the more you bought, the cheaper the total became 😂 I also accidentally found a wonderful mini forest just over the road from the sea, full of wild garlic, it looked and smelt wonderful, a waterfall that animals and humans alike enjoyed. Didn’t see any puffins on our excursion but did see sea lions x x x

      @@MemorySeekers The gloom can be depressing - hopefully it is beginning to pick up. The weather down here this year has been delightful, beautiful sun, I think only one day in the hi-80s, a little too dry, really for for visitors - perfect! Enjoy your next Adventure. Northumberland is such a huge county, with so much blatant history - Roman, Georgian, Medieval, industrial, Victorian - sweeping coasts and windswept hills - cute towns and villages, old mines and mills, splendid country piles and ruined abbeys you need a wedge of time - or just select a bit of a hub and branch out from there.
      Hexham, Corbridge, - historic houses: Wallington, Armstrong's place Cragside at Rothbury, Alnwick Castle & Gardens, Belsay Hall, too much... Ha!
