Whoopie - I get to go to Southwold for the Easter weekend

[Katymac]

I am really excited and esp as it was so unexpected

I haven't told DD - but DH & I are really chuffed

It will hardly cost anything (just food) & it's such an easy drive from here

I love Southwold! We are an hour away. Have a lovely time when you go!

Where are you staying? We are planning to go inthe summer but dont know where to start looking for a cottage for me dh and ds?

It would be Adnams - they make it there

We are staying in my auntie cottage - but loads of places are for rent - just look on-line

Is there a drinthehouse - we are about an hour away too

Message withdrawn

I live in Norwich so not to far away either. I love Southwold too.

Oh we are an hour north (outside Great Yarmouth)

Hi Fenella (fellow Norfolk resident)

Ooh I ADORE Southwold

have fun

Thanks - I think we will

love it - dreamy

We will be on the same road as the adnams stable/horses are/were (?)

Oh Katy we stayed near there once and the horse would go clopping past at odd times, it was lovely

Dp was still a drinker in those days and would sit misty eyed by the window drinking Adnams and saying "I blardy love that beer hoss, I do"

see you there.... we will be v nearby over easter.... i'll wear my "is that you ucm" badge, you can mutter "fanjo" under your breath
isnt southwold just lovely??

Just love it

I love the Blue Lighthouse Restaurant & it was such a shame when that lovely restaurant just down the road closed

lol at blue lighthouse.... strawberry in your salad anyone?
love sue's cafe on the beach / the hunkin machines on the pier / the high street / the boating lake / the tennis courts / the mad cinema..... everything.
how old is dd?

9

Don't eb mean about the BLH - there are very few restrauants I can eat at........DD loves their lasagne

We wnet to the crown (I think?) for sunday lunch - it was fab - but not a lot for me to eat - DD was in her element

what do you need to eat / avoid?

cheese/pasta/rice anything very mucked about with really

It's IBS with a touch of faddyness & I am a real apin whne it is just the 3 of us - when others are around I just end up with something deep fried (scampi/plaice etc) which although it will upset me - I can to some extent control it

I had some fab chicken this week cooked in mustard in an olive bread & that wasn't too bad (tasted fab tho')

marks fish and chips at top of high street is fantastic if that is ok for you
and on thattheme you cant beat fish and chips on the beach atdunwich imo...

my dss ar9 and 7..... will look out for you!

You might well find me

DH is a 6ft 2 Jamaican
DD is drop dead gorgeous (I can't even blush when I say that as it's true...sorry)

I am dead boring kinda middle aged and ordinary - but I have referred to a picture on-line of me this last week - you will never find it tho'

i am middle aged and ordinary..... my dh is white and weedy (but v handsome and lovely)....and my dss are beyond gorgeous.... i reckon i'll spot you first. what's the codeword then..... i vote "is that you ucm?"

Would it be easier to just meet on the Pier at such & such a time?

I love Southwold. We will be at MIL's near Felixstowe for Easter and visiting my Mum near Woodbridge so might trek up if the weather is nice. Shall we make badges?

that'd be nice.... my dh would never get it though..... "we're meeting who? katymac? someone you met on the internet????" etc. will starta thread nearer the time and make a cunning plan....

yay. 3 of us then!
