Whitstable's Weekend Wonders

Saturday was a trip to Whitstable to buy some fabric for some more bags, a mooch around the shops and a little Charity shop bargain hunting then onto lunch at the Harbour Gardens tea room, which is a lovely open air space near the Harbour which serves fabulous lunches and even supplies lovely shawls in case the sea air is a little too brisk for you. I had a fish finger sandwich with home made chips, very generous salad garnish and the best ever coffee.

Then it was off for more browsing and a sit on the bench overlooking the sea a swift glass of wine in the Pearsons Arms – the gorgeous cosy pub near the beach.

We did not stop at the fish and chip shop this time but V.C. Jones is the most famous chippie with gorgeous fish and chips, in the summer the queues can span right back along the street. If you go to Whitstable you really need to visit Jones then sit on the beach with your fish and chips and watch the sun go down.

lots of love
