Spent a beautiful day in Harwich on Wednesday, exploring the Buoy Yard of Trinity House, looking at the lightships (there are 3 in Harwich at present), the lighthouses and the old Georgian town steeped in history with plaques to the Mayflower and Samuel Pepys amongst others. I also came across the Electric Palace, beautifully restored with a very active programme of films and jazz - it is one of the oldest in the country, celebrating its 100 years this year.
