As its getting winter type quieter now along Brooklands with much reduced traffic to and from "Tower camp"...(oh that goes back a bit) but i can hear heavy road making plant still working away near the Holiday Camp somewhere. I did have a look last night but it was dark --- (surprised look) --- I must go look see later on the way out, but did notice road closure signs on our best tourist attraction here in Jaywick, the 200 plus year old Martello Tower.. Unsure just who owns the access road to it but its been patched so many times in the past, badly needing updating and drain holes to be honest as winter waves crash over the seawall there drowning out the place.. Once I was a regular visitor there in my old mondeo splashing through the salty puddles, was funny to watch but it rotted the floor out the car in a few years...... A claim?...lol...noooo... old fords never die they just get crushed for recycling new ones... <(*~*)>
Must admit that by the end of the tourist season we locals do need a bit of a rest as the 2am drunk shouty stragglers weaving there way back to tin box city do wake us up sometimes, but hey, we live in a cracking seaside place and so need to share eh....Enjoy guys..

Must admit, the new road topping --remade road & pavement, leading to Park resorts (or whatever its called) looks nearly as good as mine.... BUT, who actually owns that road? neither ECC or TDC do....
but I know who... another story for another day eh.....lol
