On the waterfront
Strange things happen at sea. I was walking with a friend along the seashore at Lee-on-Solent last weekend when an unusual vessel sailed into shore. It looked like an ancient landing craft carrying military lorries, perhaps a relic of the second world war practising for a historical re-enactmant.
Not so. It turned out, according to a helpful council warden, to be a modern piece of army equipment on manoevres along the south coast.
We found this slightly worrying.
