Early afternoon, I was surprised to find a friend from Essex in here who had decided to visit Deal on a whim. I was so surprised that I forgot to switch my 'phone off and had to forfeit £1 when it beeped to indicate that Mr. Pirrip had sent me an email.

Lunchtime visit soon after 12:00 opening and already busy. We had started our trip here because we thought it closed at 14:00 hours on a Tuesday but we were told that they are still on summer hours and open all day today.

Early evening visit. I had intended to visit the vinyl records and real ales shop opposite but it closes at 5pm on Tuesdays so I was too late.
