Enjoyed the ride, but the catering situation at the beach is getting out of hand.
I know that's not the fault of the organisers, who I stress to say do a brilliant job.
There was a guy selling sausages from a stall about 80(?) miles in. He was complaining that he couldn't get a permit to sell anything at Dunwich, and that the pub & cafe effectively had control of the end point as a result.
Now, that may be sour grapes, but the queues in the pub, the queues outside the cafe and the prices v quality of The Ship's fried breakfast indicate someone is doing very well out of the DD.
