Squeezed into the last 4 days on my holiday before I start
on my Gynaecology placement was a two night camping holiday in Chichester and a
weekend in Brighton for Pride.
Always say yes to new experiences means that I am currently
writing this in my tent at the Park Holidays Chichester lakeside holiday park,
which is essentially a trailer park on the outskirts of Chichester.
I used to live in Chichester in 2005-06 during my foundation
year so I know it well- I didn’t know this trailer park was here though. Looking
through the itinerary was amusing with activities like ‘Loopy fun time’ and ‘Bingo,
Bingo, Bingo!’ I wonder why people like to holiday here- especially as many own
their own plot and caravan, some fully equipped with full kitchens and double
fridge freezers. Chichester itself was nice to live in but essentially dead
from 8pm, unless theatre going was your thing. As a campsite goes however it
was clean and had good toilet/shower facilities if you don’t mind spiders and
your clothes getting wetter than you!
In Chichester we ate out at Ask Italian. This branch had recently
been renovated and the staff were the friendliest I’ve come across, even
laughing and providing excellent customer service when we broke a wine glass
and ordered meals which had run out. I had my usual Pizza Florentina, which was
excellent, as always, and they had not over cooked the egg. Shame there was no
smoked salmon, which really makes the difference.
