They stay in the same guest house and follow the same carefully honed schedulenow accompanied by their three children twentyyearold Mary seventeenyearold Dick and little brother Ernie. Arriving in Bognor they head to Seaview the guesthouse where they stay every year. Its a bit shabbier than it once wasthe landlord has died and his wife is struggling as the number of guests dwindles every year. But the family finds bliss in booking a slightly bigger cabana with a balcony and in their rediscovery of the familiar places they visit every year.
