many health issues. She is a keen Genealogist and gave me a monster printout of her entire tree!
We also met her son Mike (who I have corresponded with) at a motorway services area for a coffee. Quite a feat of coordination on the spur of the moment.

Just a little further along was a cliff railway which was fun....
At the other end of the Promenade was the obligatory Norman Castle. Now a sort of town park - just walk up and look around.
