BEACH HUTS

Before we left the Turner Contemporary, while the lads were occupied in the Gift Shop, I bought a copy of Katie Paterson's Book of Ideas – A place that only exists in moonlight – it was quite expensive, but I think it will be a nice souvenir for Byron – I'll give it to him when we get home.

But at last it's time to leave Margate and return to Uckfield.

On the drive back we passed some seaside Beach Huts, and Nërp noticed that some of them had been decorated in quite unusual ways.

We parked the car to investigate (and to buy ice creams, sweets and comics – obviously) and went to investigate.

Someone remarked that the one in the middle should be called Spongebob Beach Hut!

Byron was characteristically quiet on the rest of the journey, studiously writing in a little notebook he'd bought.
