My thoughts are with, I know how you feel. May I suggest the "Cows Caravan Park". Head to Cowes and turn left at The Church. If you are lucky and ask you might get a site down the back overlooking Weternport Bay.

If you do got to Big4 Newhaven and like fish and chips, the middle fish and chip shop is the nicer of the tow IMO.

Enjoy anyway. I live not that far away so know the area well.

 Thanks Dougwe,

Love fish and chips. We like fresh caught fish as well, but I'm an ecological fisherman, can only feed them can't catch them.

Before all this happened and some life changes were made, my Mum, Dad and Sister lived in Wonthaggi from 1983- 1991.

My sister worked at Alan Cameron naturopath and other similar places. Mum travelled mainly by bus to various venues.

Mum joined with Dad in the Wonthaggi Cemetary on 14 Feb this year. I had a feeling this was part of your stamping grounds.

(Not the cemetaryno )

Taking SWMBO away to Phillip Island for a short break. Had a few emotional upsets

and need the break. September the much loved MIL died, and in February my much loved Mum died.

So after all the procedures and things that have to be done,and the realization that there not there anymore,

a break is needed. Newhaven CP seems to be the place of choice. Hopefully a cool breeze to help escape from the 30degree

heat.

Kevin, I forgot to say the F&C shop is in San Remo. Yes, you have my stomping ground right and I am sort of near the cemetery.

Also, sorry about the typo's, I am trying to get used to the iPad2, sometimes it has a mind of it's own and other times I am just forgetful.

 

Edit...I know Alan Cameron and he is still in business but has moved to Inverloc Rd.

Take the break Kevin, take time out to remember the good times and take care of yourselves a little. Relax and watch the clouds(if there are any), go quietly by.
It is still very early days so be kind to yourselves also.

Best Wishes
Sharon.

So sorry to hear of the loss of your mother in law and your mother Kevin. Hope the break to Phillip Island is the "pick me up" that you both must need. Relax and rejuvenate....

cheers Bronnie

My sympathy on the loss of both your Mums Kevin. Hope Philip Island gives you peace and some respite from the heat and helps with healing.
