Harbour Rot !

So much for our attempts to escape Whitby ! A string of contrary winds, rain, unpleasant seas ( or a combination of all three ) have conspired to keep us in Whitby. In the end, we had a whole week in Whitby, which with the exception of Sunday 29th ( heavy rain all day ) was generally quite a pleasant experience - we even managed to have a meal in the Magpie Cafe. The 27/28/29th was the Whitby Spring Goth Weekend, so this added an extra bit of entertainment. All the Goths seemed to be having a good time, and everything seemed good natured. Some of those involved really had put a lot of effort into their 'costumes', one was a picture perfect copy of the mad hatter off the recent film version of Alice in Wonderland. Come Sunday evening, after a thoroughly miserable day we still weren't sure if we would be OK to move on Monday - but you never know !!!!!
