And of course, a shot of Hastings would  not be complete without the sight of the crashing waves of the sea, or a big fishing boat that makes sure Chris gets his fish fresh on a Friday....

Oh... and one more, a big anchor with crustations of some sort and one of those half-boat buildings again... another cliff lift is in the background....

We had a GREAT TIME :) :)  Thank you Chris for being such a wonderful host, and for the wonderfully animated and interesting tour of 1066 land.

Smashing piccies Trystan - you obviously all had a great time.  It's so good to be able to 'put names to faces' at last.

Trystan & Sarah

Thank you for coming to Hastings together with other Rootschatters.

I thoroughly enjoyed taking you around and trying to pass on some of the local knowledge aquired since I moved here some 20 years ago.

I really enjoyed looking at the pictures you posted and they brought back some happy memories of the day.

Thank you

Chris in 1066
