Hmm Ballerina, As I was only about 10 at the time I don't think he'd have been quite as attractive as his more mature version!

Big Son is in Whitby today Silverdarling and I am reliably informed that there is a place down near the sea front where you can get huge, luxurious hot choccy with cream, marshmallows and all thing suitable only for a feast day! The very idea set me drooling!

The cottage we stayed in in right on the sea wall. I know its still there and pretty much unchanged as we saw it on a TV program a couple of weeks ago. Can you still see the bricked up smugglers tunnel when you look down the beck? It used to fascinate me as a child. Robin Hoods Bay is lovely too if you can tackle the hill back up from the village. I think its even steeper than that hill out of Staithes!

Oooh! not spotted the smugglers' tunnel, had a walk around past the lifeboat station this morning and looked across at where you must have stayed Miffy. It is quite mild here today with some sun, was able to sit outside Crab and Lobster and look out across the harbour and beach - and there were 2 teams of young people playing football on the beach ...

I will definitely keep an eye out for this! Quite a few places in Whitby - I think I may be spoilt for choice (or have to go back more than once ) one is called 'Humble Pie and Mash' it has been recommended by several former guests at the cottage, so I think I will have to give it a go!
