The restaurant was just called "The Shack" and was completely delicious. I got the chopped BBQ sandwich. You can see where I ate a pickle already.

The Shack, a 'cabin retreat' in the grounds of Mottistone Manor, was designed as their summer office by architects John Seely and Paul Page.

This watercolour was painted in 1944 by Kathleen M Chilver, author of 'Holdenhurst Mother of Bournemouth'. Although known as The Shack today, in her book it is described as the former Dairyman's Cottage.

This grade II listed thatched cottage is said to have been built in the late 1600s.

Although no doubt it has been altered over the years, just as you might expect any building to be, it still looks the part, and is one of only a few old thatched properties still standing in Bournemouth in 2013.

May, 1990.

The original-

LOS ANGELES

2575 W. Beverly Blvd.

(213) 389-9060

On May 15, 1946, a young Tommy Koulax introduced Los Angeles to a hamburger with gusto. Fifty-four years later, L.A.'s love affair with his chili-topped creation is still going strong. Beginning with a ramshackle little stand on the corner of Beverly and Rampart Boulevards in Los Angeles, Tommy has fed an estimated fifty million Southern Californians.

The original stand today serves as the company logo, and for good reason. Although there are now several Tommy's locations throughout Los Angeles, Orange, and San Bernadino Counties, none compare with the huge popularity of the original Beverly location. Alone, it serves over 15,000 customers per week. It's why we say, "If you don't see the shack - take it back!"

Sebas Rosseler is one to watch this year

This brand-spankin'-new marker was put up on Tuesday.

Some scattered foundation stones and bricks are the only sign of the dozens of houses, post office, company store, etc. that were once crowded into this area.

Notes made by Dr Reg Yorke :- The Bungalow was present on the map of 1927, and in 1933 -50 occupied by John Carr. Originally simply an owner-built shack, later in the 1970's lived in by Mr Joe Aindow the then reader of the Tide-poles.
