well decided to go away for the week both me and my lady had booked off, the day we were leaving she made funny jokes such as why dont we go in my car (all being a 1.4 206) she said it would be more comfortable and we\'d see more as its higher up (later that day on the radio we heard about a plane landing with one engine to which she looked confused and asked why it wouldnt fly around in a circle....) anyway after filling the tank and heading soulth our 1st stop was at my auntie and uncles in blanford fourum had somthing to eat and headed for the coast, we arrived in durdle door about tea time put up the tent and went the pub, back from the pub went to sleep... wake up in the morning to find an albertross has use the rex as target practice, id never seen anything like it it was covered, so i made claire wash it and then walked down to the beach

was a pretty nice place had a walk around, saw a few old people and packed the car up headding for lyme regis

where we spent a few days, looking thru the tourist info i found a few things to do which inluded going to branscombe to see the tanker that they beached there

on the way back had a fun but secincible run with this tvr with piston heads stickers on it

as you can see moving photography isnt claires strong point
on the way back decided to go to a place called beer...

had to fill up 3 times in total much to my birds dissaproval followed by rants that her 206 would have dont the whole trip on 30quid!!!

came back thru wales paid 5.10 to cross the bridge neer bristol which i thought was a tad steep and they dont take cards so had to turn round down some side lane and go to the services, had a nice time and the rex didnt miss a beat.

Excellent. Your Rex looks sweet. The beach on the first photo looks like somewhere almost tropical. Did you go for a dip?

olly-civic

nah, i rolled my pants up and went for a splash about water was pretty cold tho, got some nice pics round that bit, the beach in lyme regis has just had its sand imported from france so its like some meditaranian (sp) beach lol

olly-civic

this is from durdle door too just the otherside of the rocks

Looks wrong. How can our water be so clear. I can see the bottom and there\'s SAND instead of pebble/gravel. Hmmmm, might have to take a trip down there with my fly rod as the waves aren\'t too rough.

Did you see fish there? Also, it is actually a crescent right rather than some super wide angle lens on your camera, lol.

Cheers
