Felixstowe in the Rain, Suffolk - 10th March 2024

It's Mothering Sunday, and Isobel wants to do something so we try to persuade the boys to come out. Fred can't be arsed, but Harry relucantly comes along as we head over to Felixstowe for a bit. As it happens, by the time we get there it's started raining, and it only gets worse, so we end up sheltering in the random market stalls of Manning's. Harry gets to eat a bit of Macaroni Cheese and then we bugger off back home, somewhat soggier than when we arrived. Chris De Burgh summed it up nicely with the line "there's nothing quite like an out-of-season holiday town in the rain".
