4 metre fail

It was a short lived, but intense relationship. He lusted after her curvaceous front end and elegantly slim extremities. All she wanted was the care, love and guidance of a gentleman.

day two

 Rainy Roundway!

it's been a while since they've flown in the rain

brolly saves the day.....that is until they give up and head south for the afternoon

Richard Burton and John Hurt arrive a week later to find double plus good weather

but can't agree who'll be the lift dummy

The conditions at Ringstead Bay.....time to head home!
