Old fashioned biker's bar with great live music. Opened by Molly in 1952 and taken over by her son Romeo, who sadly died last month. But it's still going strong!

Around the Spaceport

The world's first commercial spaceport. Amazing design by Fosters. From the approach it is deliberately very grounded. On the business side it reaches for the stars.

We have interesting memories of that place as our car had puncture when we were there - and it is not the best place if you are missing the tools...
