DAYS OUT
I cannot actually remember these cigarette machines but I was surprised to see one in Whitstable High Street the other day and in such good condition, I think it’s nice that things are preserved and not hidden away so we can view them as we go about our day.

We had a choice of meats with the Sunday lunch which arrived with so many veg and the biggest Yorkshire pudding all for £12. They…
