And some dredging company did well out of the proceeds.  The sea will take it back no doubt.

Was looking at the sand levels infront of the Martello  Bay estate yesterday, by the big newly formed bay..


My goodness, the sand is all but gone at one point, wont be long before the hightides are crashing over the seawall just there.

They also suffer the same fate as we do in Brooklands, fine sand being wind blown onto the roads and gardens adjacent to the beach.

To counteract that now, we have much coarser sand, Shocked

(stop laughing in the back young Lin, it does NOT swear)

plus we have magic circles of freshly planted grasses to hold back wind drift, Embarassed

(yes Lin, no joking either Rolling Eyes )


(good to see your fighting back young Lin)

nil desperandum, or dont sit on a revolving grindstone.. Exclamation
or was that carborundum...come to think of it,
both are desperate.. Question

I heard somewhere that our sands are now coated with microscopic Teflon plastic ground up from waste and will not form into stable mass.

If true our beaches are not going to improve quickly.
