Good on ya, HOughy! I appreciate the effort you're going to as the official IIS intrepid roving reporter just to keep us remote "Pasha pervers" informed...

If you run into trouble may I suggest the direct approach... Pretend you are "Nobby" and just barge in ranting "What the!!! get that ship off my beach!!!!" It may not help, but we might see you on tele!!!

Al.

Did anyone see Sports Tonight's "Play of the Day" last night, they had a play with computer graphics and had the Thunderbirds come in and air lift the Pasha Bulker out, quite well done it was.

Just remember, if you guys want to have a go we don't mind, but we need it to be moved towards the water, not further up the beach...

Did you see that?! Looked like a couple of bods with a prawn net walked behind it!

Looks like the rain's eased a bit the image has cleared up a bit.

She is certainly moving around in that swell, can't be doing her keel any good.

Yeah Al

It's that rocking back and forth that will eventually break her back.

On TV it looked like they were trying to tow a car with a few spider's webs!
My parents are visiting in 2 weeks, they'd love to see it on the beach, so we don't mind if it takes a while
