Watchet ...........
What a hell hole!!
Just returned from a week in Porlock, lovverlly, jubberrlly!!
Minehead is pleasant, Porlock is quaint, Lynmouth is grand, Dunster is Historic ..... Watchet is, well ..... we went there 12 years ago and it was a crap-hole ................................. its NOT CHANGED!!
Why do holes like that still hobble along from year to year? I was told that the harbour has been re-done so off we go to visit ..... hmmmmmm, yes maybe, but its now populated by the local drugged up youths
Stay Away!!!

Well its all changed now ............. a right cosmopolitan town!!
I was there in the 50's and 60's and used to count the bikes and trollies dumped in the Tees ..... imagine my shock to hear that my mate goes ski-ing on the Tees now AND there is fish in the lower reaches
Good grief!!

Pete; I suspect that youre not that much older than me, considering that your brother in laws sister in law or somesuch is conducting Prince Charles's wedding ceremony..... she didnt look to be a deal over 40, if at all. 50's and 60's indeed.

I am amazed you stayed in one ........ certainly I expect only the best when I am away on business, but then - I am highly prized by my employers
You and your pi$$ Balloons, as you mention, are clearly thought of as such by your employers!
I wonder why Pete

Technically, i actually live in Stockton.
It is a ****hole.
However, they do have a very nice shiny new road which enables you to get out of Stockton quicker, which is always a bonus in my eyes
