Take a hat

Out on the bike - August 2011 Looking down on Studland Bay A fine day and a bicycle, what more do you need? Well, ideally somewhere that is beautiful, traffic free and with a nice bakery on route.. Where better than the Purbecks on a Monday morning. The blooming heather on the Heath Sandy Hill Lane View from Sandy Hill Lane - a lovely route between Corfe Castle and Swanage  Damson Jam? Damsons hang like grapes in the hedgerows.

Domestic Strife - August 2011 Violence broke out on the sands of Swanage at the weekend. Injuries, not believed to be life threatening, were suffered by Punch and Judy. Apparently domestic difficulties have been experienced regularly by this couple over the last 350 years.  A large crowd of minors watched the events and appeared at times to be encouraging the couple.  “Oh yes you did!” Space on Top? Wing walking at Bournemouth Air Show   Ryanair are apparently looking at a novel way of increasing the passenger capacity on their low cost flights. A new priority boarding category is being trialled whereby passengers will be offered an outside position on the wing. As well as increasing capacity it will offer a less restricted view and unlimited fresh air. Baggage can be carried in a Rucksack at a small additional cost. It will of course be perfectly safe, cabin announcements will be piped to external speakers. Another on-wing arrival by Ryanair!
