I haven't been to Devon or Cornwall for many years but both are beautiful counties. Friends have been there in recent years though. There are decent beaches down there and should have places where you can walk your dog. The locals are decent as well.
I'm looking forward to going to Skegness at the end of March next year. I think we have driven through there a few years ago. We are going to stay in a caravan that is owned by people we know church and taking a friend, Mary, from church and a friend of hers, Elsie, who comes along for the Thursday lunch club. Mary has had a hard life. Her first husband died young, her second husband was violent towards her - they were married for 15 years - and he died a few years ago. She has a disabled daughter who has four children, one has left home. We have got the impression that they walk over her all the time. I know people at church and friends appreciate us taking Mary out and have included her for this holiday. I don't know Elsie very well but she is a good friend to Mary who has played a part in helping Mary learn how to read, write and maths. She will be good company for Mary.
