which is technically pedestrians only except for the cycle lane down the middle.

Google don't let a little thing like that get in their way.

Try the dive school people. Some of them do it in the winter.

+1 for Intermarche. He cut some fairly complex keys for us. One was an ornate design and he managed to match it.

Thanks.

When would you expect them to launch the Winter flights? I seem to recall it was Mid March last year.

It looks on Google Maps as if the link from the 125 passes underneath the A22, so I'm guessing you'd be ok.

Anything bigger would just require more heating. I guess that we wouldn't want to be spending much more th...

Hopefully, we will be retiring soon and I want to get away from the UK winter. I hear people saying that you can get really good deals but I can't find any on the internet.
