Subject: RE: Sparkling Sidmouth!! :0)
Ooh George....I'm just off to phone the Sidmouth Herald....we don't have many virgins in Siddy these days...Government Policy I'm afraid! ;0)

OK...We've pebbles George, sorry...unless it's low tide, in which case there quite a bit of sand on the main beach, mostly inbetweenn the Rock Islands (someone cue Lonnie)and the waves come in at right angles to each other...and they literally do a Mexican Wave..love that bit......or far more sand at low tide, up at Jacob's Ladder beach around the corner...

We've no sea urchines, but there was a weaver fish or two apparently reported the other day, so bring your slippers....and we have mermaids! Up in the Clock Tower Restaurant, which has the biggest cream cakes in the world! You can work off the calories by climbing Jacob's Ladder to get up there George, no worries ;0)

All the town is in the flat part.

The water's freezing George....I think the polar caps are melting this way! If you see a man with a yellow lilo, singing "We're bound for South Australia" walking nonchalantly down the road, being followed by loads of other Yellow Robed Recruits....don't panic...it's all perfectly normal in Siddy! ;0)

Oh...and watch out for that Jim Causley! ;0)

And Dave....The Lighthouse Song....I loved that one too...you sang that with such passion, can I put in a request for that one as well...

Don't mention the passion word though...Mackenzie's after me for being too noisy this morning! Shhhhhh! Don't tell him I was here....you know nothing! ;0)
