Pleasant morning. Water was a little more like coffee than just muddy - i.e. a milky brown.

Another pleasant morning. Interesting observation (I thought something was different when I drove into the car park), but there is no toilet block here any more, all that is left is a bare patch of dirt.

wonder why I bother some times - got to the site to find large load of rubbish just dumped at the end of the car park - most of it recyclable packaging!!
