army surplus near grimsby?

[Rabbitsmacker]

hi all!

going on holiday soon and as usual i start poking about for a surplus store to visit while away. i have found 'army surplus shop' in grimsby, by using the web search, but some stores that are little aladdins caves aren't on the web. does anyone know of a shop worth visiting in and around louth, alford, cleethorpes, skeggy, lincoln etc etc.

your help would be appreciated, though not by the missus.

cheers all in advance.

I used to live in grimsby and sometimes I visit Dave Airguns in Freeman Street but all you'll find is a few army surplus clothes, fake paracord, crossbows, BB guns and a few BCB items
Its quite small and not worth a visit IMO.
As far as other places to visit there used to be a decent surplus shop in Louth but that was a few years ago and nothing else I'm aware of besides usual Millets etc in Freshney Place.

But if you go to Cleethorpes and head a mile or so up the coast away from the main attractions, there is some fine beachcombing to be done for razorclams, cockles and limpets at low tide.
You could even find a sheltered bit in the dunes and have a small fire to cook your finds.
