South Bay Scarborough

Well theym off to Scarborough again to do the South Side. Bus today there and back (single decker there, double back for you bus afficienados!). Walk down from the station to the prom then a right turn to stroll to the Spa end. They reckon everyone in Yorkshire must own at least one dog, there is so many in the beach at this end, banned though in the popular part of the sand. About turn and...... 'they ended up at the Grand Hotel, it was empty, cold and bare' for all you Deep Purple fans, yes you MrMc! They didn't see any smoke on the water though. South Bay was rammed apparently with day trippers, either in the many, many arcades or scoffing ice cream and fish n chips. After taking in the harbour a terrible thirst overtook them and Ghost Shop ale was supped to save them from dehydration. Fish n Chips next at Winking Willie's Fish Restaurant and pretty good was the verdict. Yorkshire Air had turned a bit chilly so a wander back up to the town centre in time for the bus home. Last time they were here with them kids Sarah and Jennie along with their Granny Mary, they got froze and rained on the beach for a week, with that Tom just a bulge, so thanks Scarborough you've been great and a bit warmer this time.Read more
