It would be awful to go and find them overrun with ice cream stalls and burger bars. There is a charge even to go down to park of £3 - is this a good thing or not? Might keep out the mean or the riff raff but maybe the riff raff don't want to be there in the first place (with apologies to riff raff, suspect I'm one so shouldn't talk). <BR/>Anyway, I work on the basis that dunes and pines and ravens and lighthouses aren't everyone's cup of tea although I would not be at all surprised to find a phalanx of purplecooers munching homemmade pork pies and sharing organic chocolate in the sheltered lee of a dune.Elizabeth Musgravehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473705107636868753noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4028290314714419963.post-43848937551807426472007-11-03T21:57:00.000+00:002007-11-03T21:57:00.000+00:00Wow, what fabulous photos.
