You cant beat a bit of gallivantin', Elle!

my typos are getting worse. Time to say goodnight I guess. I did answer some crossword clues today amongst all the chat !

One of my cousins used to run the Square and compass !!! (so named because of masonic connections)

Yes, indeed, Jazzy, it's a small world! Used the "floating bridge" many times to cross from Sandbanks to Shell Bay!

and Chris, Worth Matravers is just up the road from where we used to stay near Swanage!

The chain ferry to shell bay.....love it !! the smell of the engine oil and the clanking noise

You never know, we may all have passed each other on the road.......

That's how we started too.

The Scott Arms at Langton Matravers used to be fun with their dog pinching everyone's food, and donkeys in the garden
