Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Dilli: Don't want to rain on your parade, but I believe the museum for the Mary Rose itself is being rebuilt and isn't open to the public at the moment. Might be worth checking if that's all you want to see. Have a look at http://www.maryrose.org/new_museum/index.html

I might have got it wrong, of course.

Have a great time anyway, whatever you get up to.

If you like beaches, try West Wittering.

Re: The Happy Thought Thread Part 4

Just had the full Turkish shave experience, now sat overlooking Kyrenia Harbour having lunch and Efes (local beer, very nice), with free wifi - result.....

Temp approx. 42C, so staying in the shade, due to my naturally blue complexion.

Assiduously avoiding dehydration (cf Efes above )

I have a choice of font sizes that lets me read books again, about 50 books downloaded to keep me happy for a few days, had a quick play with the internet connection and have even visited CF so it seems to do everything I hoped.

Now if I could just work out how to attach the cover I will have cracked it, ....... well not actually cracked it, I don't want to temp fate.
