I awoke to the rumbling of heavy machinery at 5.30am and could just see the lights of the JCB's working on the Spit. I was out at 7.15 and there was just enough light to get a few shots..
A little later the light improved and here is a view through the 'poor tree'
 |
| Work continues on maintaining the road bridge which cannot be maintained for very long and restricts the amount of time the vehicles have on the spit. | | |
 |
| The bulldozer working hard to secure a bridge head. |
 |
| Its not long before the last load is brougt onto the shore |
...and work continues in creating a barricade before the next set of Spring Tides hit us.
 |
| None of this work solves the problem but does give some comfort for the time being. |
The next load of rocks is at last on its way, courtesy of
the tug Afon Cefni travelling at 3.3knots and currently off the Kent
coast near Rye (2.30pm) .
It could take a few more days to get here at that speed!
