They were complete strangers, nothing to do with PCa and only came to the hotel for lunch!!!!

The funny bit is the five minutes they quietly sat there saying nothing while we jabbered on!

Skegness yeah. Went there this year by train from Sleaford, train packed with "foreigners" or so I thought due to the how they spoke but then realised they were from Nottingham on an annual pilgrimage. I call Skeg, "Nottingham on Sea" now. ;)

Great place in the winter when the place is quiet, free from the smell of candy floss and fish and chips and a walk along the dunes gets your lungs full of that great North Sea salt laden air/

Beats Cleethorpe hands down!

Lyn, yes I did say not moving again but then life had other ideas. Which I think helps make the point just because you have/had PCa life will still do what it will.

Roger, ' about to exchange' I'm saying nothing to jinx that - good luck.

When I eventually go and see Sis she suggests I run along Skeg sands. Not so sure about that especially if a chilling wind is blowing. Possibly if fit enough Boston parkrun, time will tell on that.

Barabara, I never knew that. Circa 2 years in Skeg just off the Queens Rd.

Ross, oh yes I recall that couple. I thought old al had sent them in to sus out what's going on.
