What s going for it? I have fond memories of Howards Way , don t you? Leaving aside the Thatcherite subtext of advancement through the application of ruthless business acumen, of course. And the rickety plot about boatyards and bastards. And the theme tune (whatever happened to the Simon May Orchestra?). All that aside, what got me was the fantasy it conjured up: Dynasty bauhaus katalog just west of Bognor. I fancied its scriptwriters had Emsworth in mind for the fictional town of Tarrant. It s a handsome, boaty town, all chandlers and alleys, gift shops and marinas, beached above the wide skies of Chichester Harbour with the South Downs lapping at the shore, and the kind of spot easily overlooked bauhaus katalog as another smudgy suburb of Portsmouth, unless, like me, you took a wrong turn off the A27. Is that Mrs Howard s boutique I spy on St Peter s Square? I m sure I spotted her at Damar s hair salon having her bouffant inflated.
Well connected? Not bad. Driving: near the junction of the A/M27 and the A3; 15 minutes to Portsmouth, 30 to Southampton, though bauhaus katalog the traffic can be chronic. Trains: two or three an hour to Portsmouth (25 minutes) and Southampton (47), several to Chichester bauhaus katalog (10), one or two to Brighton (just over an hour) and Victoria (100-120 minutes).
