My Kingdom for a .........beach hut????

As the world knows the British have many, many quirks...some are vaguely amusing, some irritating and some just completely odd....

One of the odder traits of a certain number of British people is their obsessive behaviour in relation to 'Beach Huts'...

For the uninitiated, British beach huts are an institution on many of Britain's 'great' beaches...(yes, we do have beaches!), these huts are no more than glorified garden sheds with a view of the sea. Often they have no electricity, running water or other 'mod cons', however if you should find a hut with an energy source...it could be worth a relatively vast sum of money.

So what is the point of them? In essence it seems to provide somewhere for the average British beach goer to put their 'things' and of course to make their numerous cups of tea!!

If you do decide to buy a hut...this is how you could spend next Christmas...from The Telegraph


If you find the hut of your dreams...queueing for it for a few days is obviously not a problem!!

If you do decide to buy a beach hut...these people, will help you 'furnish' it!!!
