I thought no one lived on the isle of Grain as its all marsh land.
Never been there, its just something I recall reading.
Supposed to be a paradise for bird watchers though.
I know my mate Damon is a butnof a slob, but calling his living room marshland is over egging it somewhat!

Reasonable sized village on the isle. I guess its not a true isle any more, although umless you use the road you can't get there without getting wet feet. I love the place - a strange mix of 150 years of industial and military, seaside, and rural.

Morning all :hello:

Off to the great metropolis of Barnstaple this morning - MrsD wants to get some Christmas shopping.
Probably get back disappointed, as usual, because she couldn't get half of the things she wanted.

It did have a power station. In the early/ mid 70’s I worked for John Laing as a plant fitter , I went to the site a number of times during construction. It was so ****** COLD . We kept the van engine running ,heater on full for frequent warm ups.
 
Good morning all, a wet start here. Forecast to get brighter but colder.

Still suffering from Monday’s booster. Still very achy, didn’t sleep much, arm still very painful, I can barely raise it. This is way worse than the original two jabs.
