Anyone remember? We read it late 1980s early 1990s

Working class family can't afford a holiday. Dad gets a load of sand to make a beach in garden.
have tried Google. Negative score

Did the sand arrive in a tipper truck and get tipped into the garden? Over the fence? Maybe a few tipper trucks?

Picture book? Grandma or Grandpas Beach?

@JanBlue Memory of words, In my mind, I wrongly link to the family in One End Street.
We had them at the same time.

@MyNewWittyUserName Big sister thinks more than one load of sand.
Pictures with words under.
People looked real, traditional working class.

@Susan2 is it The Groggs? We have two Groggs books (husbands from his childhood) and our kids absolutely loved them! Groggs Day Out and Groggs have a wonderful summer?

I think @CatnipInTheRye is right. This is a page from Groggs have a wonderful summer

Thank you all for your help.
The illustration @HobnobsChoice put up is in the style we remember. Thank you also @CatnipInTheRye .
Amazon are only offering a Kindle edition. That picture did not prompt our memories.
We will look for a paper copy.
Enjoy your weekend.

@Susan2 does this help with memories?

@CatnipInTheRye Thank You Very Much, those pics clinched it, The Groggs it is.
