About this poem:
It may be a bit of an English thing, but wandering along the beach with a bag of chips in the evening is hard to beat......lol....Andrew...xxx
you shared a nice brief memory - and reminded me of something we used to do in africa...G&T on the verandah watching the sun go down.

Oh Andrew149....how I smiled. Thanks for the memory, though in 1977, it wasn't french fries, it was rough cut...but so right, nothing like it..at places like Hastings, Deal etc...Love the poem. Niah9
