Bournemouth
This week Susan is in Bournemouth, starting with a ride on the land train along Bournemouth's seven mile stretch of sandy beach. She then heads to the lower gardens joining other holidaymakers to listen to the band playing in the historic Pine Walk Bandstand. Back on the beach, she spots a game of handball. It's something she's always wanted to try her ‘hand' at – maybe now's her chance.
Along the coast, she boards the ferry to Mudeford which boasts some of the best beach huts in Bournemouth and what's more – you can stay in them. Back in the centre of Bournemouth Susan visits the Russell Cotes Gallery. Perched on the cliff this 19th-century house is a Victorian treasure trove and has quite possibly one of the grandest toilets she has ever seen.
Then she meets Bournemouth local and TV choirmaster Gareth Malone. Always up for some beach side fun, Susan challenges Gareth to a game of Jenga and realises she has met her match.
In nearby Poole, Susan boards another boat, this time a fish and chip cruise along Poole Harbour. Skipper Brian points out the sights including the small peninsula of Sandbanks, otherwise known as, millionaire's row. Meanwhile, Gareth makes a splash as he tries yoga on the sea. He might be good at his ‘omms' with all that singing but how about a headstand?
Along Bournemouth's famous cliffs Susan meets the equally famous cliff goats, ex regimental, retired goat Llewellyn and pals Derek and Hamish. As she takes the cliff lift back to the beach Susan discovers Bournemouth's selfie trail, creating her own holiday memento then meets Gareth again back on the beach for a singalong with Britain's only beach choir - a wonderful way to end her holiday.
