Yes a great way to see Shaftesbury Nick. Always enjoyable sitting there with a cup of coffee watching the planes and gliders fly in and out.

Hi Rosa,

Interesting viewpoint, and I missed seeing it on Friday by a few hours, so a little late HFF!

Best Wishes

Thank you Diane. This was the last place I took my lovely mum for a coffee in 2016, just weeks before she died. She always enjoyed going there and it brought back many happy memories to me.

Aww, how sweet, Rosa. My mother is 93 and still hanging in there, but no longer able to go out. A tenuous grasp on memory, too. Well, that's how it is. ;-(
