THe excavators have very little space left in which to remain if we get a particularly high tide.

   Don't worry. I cannot be 100 percent certain from the photo but I think the yellow digger has Jennings Plant Services logos on the side.  Nasty now. If it is JPS they have had previous experience. Remember Rhos beach a few months ago.

A promising start to the day.
I just wanted to say I just loved the photos. So beautiful and spiritual. Thank you so much for posting them!

Thank you. Every morning is different. This is one from the warm spell at the end of September this year.

It is a race tour for classic cars (old bangers).

They were cutting it even finer last Saturday afternoon.

I overheard a pier manager complaining the vibration from the lorries maybe damaging the pier foundations and they may need to carry out some vibration tests.
