Skegness

Just got back from a few days camping in the coastal resort of Skegness. It's a nice enough place but it was very windy, so despite a bit of late summer sunshine it was never really warm, and when we got back home it was much warmer, with no wind.

But Skegness' problem (other than not being in a Medeteranean climate of course) is that the only real way to get there (save for British rail and coach tours) is by car, and whichever way you drive there, and wherever you come from, you have to spend the last leg of the journey driving along single-lane roads, which we averaged around 35mph on. If there were a dual carriageway the whole way the journey time would be halved.
