A happy-go-lucky lady on the cusp of 50 ticks surfing off her bucket list, and a folk musician extols the healing power of seaside life. A mother and two boys learn how to live with the grief of losing their husband and father, and a family with five caravans on the same site enjoy quality time together over the 12th fortnight. A man spends his first summer at the caravan site without his mother after caring for her full-time for eight years, and a former skinhead from the Shankill road finds healing from PTSD at his little sanctuary by the sea.Less
