:D Yep ive been at it again with my camera. This time i had a trip to Clevedon, near Weston-super-mare just of the M5. Never been before so i took some pics of bits of the coastal road and beach in Clevedon. 8)  Some pics are a bit dodgy not very clear, but some are o.k. The weather was brilliant and warm. Left Manchester at 9:30am with cab heater on and jacket. By the time ide reached the Black Country the Sun was out,jacket and heater off. :D  Whilst i was walking around the small beach ide found i could feel the Sun burning on my arms. Now why cant Manchester be more like this. :lol:

 :D Anyway Clevedon looks like a great place to visit. Quite little coastal town with old victorian buildings and even an outdoor natueral swimming pool on the beach. Not seen one of these since i was a nipper when we used to go to Morecombe for our hols  :lol: . Pics below..  :D

I first went to Talacre when I was 18 in my Cortina Mk2..... I drove to the beach area and noticed some Beetle buggies on the other side of what seemed like a firm area.....

Yeeh you guessed it, is was soft sand and they had mad eit cos of their large fat tyres...... We tried it and got a few feet into the sand and very nearly got stuck..... Much to the amusement of the lads ont eh other side...

Dont think it would be a problem now but the 145/13 tyres just weren't upto the job... always a tyre thing aint it :)

strapping young lad:
which docks would you have seen on the m5?

I think you meant the Bare pool at Morecambe. It's actually a man-made (concrete & stone) pool.
That's if we're thinking of the same one, this one is up the road a few hundred yards towards Happy Mount park.
Anyway, have a look here for some memories of Morecambe :D
