Hi Gail and Ken I loved this thought too - except I was wondering if they all enjoyed feeding the ducks as children, as did my daughter in the early 1990s. Emsworth was one of our favourite outings when we lived in Hampshire - she wasn't pleased when we moved to Devon, because we couldn't find anywhere to feed the ducks! Simple pleasures.
