I guess it's all a matter of individual taste since I will jam myself full of scrapple and there are other folks who won't touch it with a 10 foot pole.

I actually went to Castlepoint with Sue.

It has been open for about 20 years now and only 20 minutes drive, full of the favourite High Street shops. I have never gone because......well because.

To confirm my doubts, never go on a Saturday. When we decided to head for home for a cup of tea the car-park was gridlock with everyone trying to get out too. There is only one exit.
So I parked the car further down and we went into a teashop for half and hour watching the cars get more and more jammed. Once it cleared we got back in the car and raced down clear ramps like something out of The Italian Job.
Great fun!

So now I've sussed it out I know it will be suitable to take mum there, there is loads of parking for disabled.

Why? I guess because it's outside my comfort zone. I've gotten to the point where crowds of people annoy me and I end up getting cranky.
