This boy hadn't read the threads on sizing here. Never mind, he said the chain had broken on his his own and his Dad had told him to use his. Rather a nice pug actually.

There is something similar to this at Saltburn on the Yorshire coast, water fills into the car at the top and when it outweighs the car at the bottom it goes down as the other comes up, simple but ingenious.[/QUOTE]

Yes, it's the one at Lynton / Lynmouth.

I love that part of the world but its a bit of a journey so not one we do often.

For a minute there I thought it only went up when the tide came in and then back down when the tide receded

Bluebells are almost blooming.

Not English Bluebell, but Mertensia?

 

[Gravity Aided]

Probably, Definitely different than English Bluebell, but what we know as Bluebell here.

Just planted some my garden (for a second time, at a cost of £5....)

They are quite pretty. This person always lines the bike path with flowers near her home, and keeps an attractive garden along the path.

I still have blossom on some of my fruit trees. I hope the birds don't eat all the cherries before we have a chance

to eat them this year.

There seem to be a few of us in the Thurrock area. My rides tend to take in Orsett, Grays, Bulphan and Stanford-le-Hope

Right there I headed out to Chadwell via Grays and Tilbury and then back via Rainham a 29 mile leg stretcher.

Yeh, I live near Purfleet station. So I like to go out to grays along the water for the view then into orsett. That gives me a decent 17-23 mile loop.
