They started with a dozen of oysters, followed by a steak each, several sides, a lobster to share and then a crumble each

Wow! That's some expensive tastes that they have.

That's a nice suggestion for us to go back - next summer of course when it's nice and toasty. We went with our in-laws so we should definitely do that... and try to pop into Maggie's for some tasty fish and chips.

Is East Hill and the Country ParK the side that also has the cable car? I remember there are 2 cables cars, I think we went up 1 which was fairly central (and had a drink in the cafe at the bottom). I really wish that I had a good memory! Perhaps I should take more photos to remind me 😂

Yes, exactly, East Hill is where the other cable car is. I have seen the coffee shop at the bottom of West Hill but I haven't taken the cable car up. I was doing our groceries at the big Morrisons nearby so I walked past West Hill a few times and it was always quite lively. East Hill is the very opposite. Last year the cable car wasn't even running at all. It did the year before though but there were just a few people taking it. Maybe this lift is less busy as the people keen on walks up there in the country park don't mind the steps all the way up. The view is worth it though, there are a few benches and some take even a picnic up and enjoy the sunset. Photos are a great reminder of what we did and when, they even show the exact location. I sometimes even photo timetables and price lists which come in handy sooner or later.

True - if you're interested in a long walk, a few steps aren't going to put anybody off!

It sounds like you've been there a few times which isn't that surprising really. It's a very easy journey from London 🙂
