Here I am in Holland-on-sea, visiting Ralph and more importantly, his Dad, now in a local nursing home.  In addition to spending time with ex-father-in-law-Frank, my day included a late afternoon walk on the beach with Ralph and pooch (Toby) - too cold to paddle now in the chilly North Sea - and some brief, and unnecessary, but much enjoyed retail therapy. Rounded it all off with pint(s) of Abbott and dinner in the nearby pub.
