Steve G Posted March 29, 2006 Share Posted March 29, 2006 Not long now....9 days and counting.....if the Marine Lodge is full then the Westminster is almost as close - Rod D used to stay there and always said it was OK. It's right opposite the old railway station (Yarmouth Beach - now a Car Park as well ironically enough Gavin!) so about 50 yds from the Raynescourt.

Phew! And more - leaving aside London, the Lake District, Dorset, Devon and Cornwall, Britains only car ferry river crossing is but a short and pleasant drive from Great Yarmouth. More trivia tomorrow. Link to comment
