A Trip to New Milton and Barton-on-Sea, Hampshire - 27th November 2008

Nosher, Isobel and Fred are down in New Milton to catch up with some friends and relatives. The first stop is a visit a few of the old childhood haunts of New Milton and Barton on Sea seafront, to show Fred around and to have a general poke about to see what's changed recently - and to see where they've managed to stick yet more flats.
