Well, that's it for me and I can't believe I've watched the last one !

Spoilers ahead so don't read any further if you haven't finished watching yet.

That Abbey Urquhart, what a b itch ! I couldn't remember what she did in the end, but I got a shock when she got on the plane. Poor Leo, lost a child but gained a new girlfriend in Jenny (who looked a bit manly if I'm honest )

It was good to see Ken get his own back on Laura though, she certainly deserved it, even better when Orin shafted her aswell brilliant stuff. In all an excellent last series even though it felt a little rushed towards the end to tie up loose ends, but much better than the lack lustre 5th series.

Regards to all.

Second link for Barracuda of Tarrant is no longer working (sold ?) don't know.

Sailorboy. My wife and I went down to the Hamble yesterday for lunch in the Jolly Sailor but I don't think there would be much call for tours these days. The food I must say was excellent but not cheap (as you would expect). The easiest place to park is in Lands End Road in Bursledon (Hamble) and walk down the steps to the pub which is easily found although I would avoid a warm summer night as it is sure to be heaving !. From here you can walk infront of the pub past Jacks cottage and along a path past the Elephant (Mermaid) boatyard.

At the top of Lands End Road on the junction with Station Hill (on the green) you will find the Urquart (sp ?) house which is easilly recognisable by the round windows. From here you can walk on round to Church Lane where you'll find the church Lynn got married in (and Mark Foster got buried !) you'll also pass the station where Polly regularly meets people "off the train".

Afternoon we went to Hamble-Le-Rice where, right on the waterfront, was Leos' windsurf shack and the yaught club.

The only place we were looking for but couldn't find was the Howards house, perhaps it was not in the area we were looking so if anyone has any info I would be interested to find out where it is.

I was just looking at ordering Series 4 when I came across this link......

Guess who's for sale at the moment ? The old girl Barracuda Of Tarrant herself ! This is the original wooden prototype built at the Elephant (Mermaid) Boatyard in Burlesdon. No it's not mine and I'm not spamming but I was rather hoping that perhaps we could all have a whip round ?
