  Fascinating to see those pictures. Well done Paul.
  I thought myself all that was needed there was for you to go down on the beach and command the tide to withdraw. Have I over estmated your powers all these years...lol

  pretty poor state of affairs when the sea shows scant respect for our leaders.

  Yes we was back there this morning and I like seeing it all going on.In fact the ship with all the sand on is the same one that I done some welding on years ago,I was called out about 0400hrs one sunday morning taken down to Hammonds put on one of their boats and taken out to sea to that ship and I was there all day then they came back out and home I went, must say sea was not like it was today and my tool box went over the side never to be seen again.
