Thanks! Didn't want to go to Holkham again!

Plus only 10 minutes away, so less chance of breakdowns!

I am going down there tomorrow to (try to) sort out the parking. It may be logisitaclly difficult to get us together/where I want for the best photos, but we'll see. It all depends on how good a day it is. It can get very busy there of course, but at 4.30 it's going to be a lot easier.

To give you an idea, this is the Facebook page for the ice cream kiosk.

Great to see that Mr. Max Headroom is also living there.

And because I was inquisitive (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Max_Headroom_(character))

Notwithstanding the publicity for the character, the real image of Max was not computer generated. Computing technology in the mid-1980s was not sufficiently advanced for a full-motion, voice-synced human head to be practical for a television series. Max's image was actually that of actor Matt Frewer in latex and foam prosthetic makeup with a fiberglass suit created by Peter Litten and John Humphreys of Coast to Coast Productions in the UK. This was then superimposed over a moving geometric background. Even the background was not actual computer graphics at first; it was hand-drawn cel animation like the "computer-generated" animations in the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy TV series. Later in the U.S. version they were actually generated by a Commodore Amiga computer.

I'm a little concerned taking my car so close to the sea. The salty air might cause corrosion

Seriously though, it sounds great, cant wait

We've got to make sure Tony doesn't push it from the cliffs.
