Sis#1 and Sis#2 bemused by my enthusiasm - 'it's just a white dome on the roof of a shack'. Harsh on the excellent work of the NCI, I thought!!

What a great area, glad to get out London and enjoy a few days on the south coast. More torch recce work thru Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth and Portland. Weather beautiful with occasional intense downpours. Particularly liked the name of the local skip hire firm - Hump & Dump, lol.
