Hey that is really strange. I looked at your card and thought to myself that the beach huts really reminded me of the ones at Scarborough - my son celebrated his 40th there in June. I came on to leave a comment and notice that Lisa has also put that they remind her of the ones at Scarborough.
Love the card.
I am well and I hope you are too.
luv
