Jedd with Uncle Bert - waiting for the steam train.  The Romney, Hythe and Dymchurch Railway is the smallest public railway in the world.   Jedd with Uncle Bert - who, as it turned out, wasn't at all worried about being seen with a bloke in a pink shirt.
  You're not allowed to attack the cliffs, only the stuff that's already fallen down.  In retrospect it was probably a silly idea to be sitting here, as every now and then you'd hear a thud in the distance as an old lump of cliff became a new lump of beach (in the pebbly Brit sense of the word).   The first sunny day in about 8 months, and no sunglasses .. meant much squinting during the fossil hunting.   I don't know what it is - but every time I get a photo taken of me in a kitchen I look fat.

I also appear to have really mucked up the whole mixing of blue stripey garments.   Locally known as Þingvellir, with an english transliteration to Thingvellir - the original seat of parliament (out to the right) since the middle of the 10th century AD, now recognised as where the main europe and north american tectonic plates meet - pretty much up the line behind me.  The Blue Lagoon, on the Reykjanes Peninsula.

It was around 2°C, and windy as all get out, the day we visited.
