I was in the CCV at New Romney all week, weather has been pretty good, Thursday fantastic.
Was due to leave at 11:00am this morning, however severe weather warning for Sunday morning meant I would be packing up in a monsoon, driving back in squalls and gusts of unknown severity, and as it turns out, parking the van at home in a zero visibility hailstorm.
So we left yesterday afternoon. Pity, meant I missed filming the first passenger train through Lydd Town Station in some 55 years.
As an aside, fascinating part of the country, Dungeness in particular is almost extra terrestrial in its geographic and environmental weirdness.
And in the space of just over a month, I visited failed and successful attempts to be warned about the Luftwaffe in WW2. The failed sound mirrors at Denge marsh, and the successful radar at Bawdsey.
