Misc - pretty random

A random selection of recent odds and ends...



The old pool up at the fort is getting more and more vandalised.





.. nearby, the new electric substation at the reversing bays (quick snap from the car, sorry about the poor quality)






.. again I couldn't be bothered to get out of the car, but it's passable. Taken from Gorey.






The old Drive-In site is being cleared.





Banners announced the coming of digickle telly. It's been really good to have more choice and such a clear picture - I wouldn't go back to analogue! I'm glad we weren't the last region to change over!




Too many cars are silver!







A few moments earlier the foreground was sunlit, but hey. Can't win 'em all! (or any!)






St.Mary's Church, sunlit with dark cloud background..








.. closer.







What a couple of cows.







Warm sunset on one side, and very blue Christmas lights starting to show up in the shaded road.

Goodbye The Drive-Inn



Not looking good for yet another local eatery...










Enjoy!









Yeah, really welcome!









What a shame.








.. closer.





How much more of Jersey as we knew it has to close down? What will we be left with? Each time a hotel or restaurant site is lost to housing there's no going back. Is the island going to end up as one giant housing estate, or will we reach a tipping point where we suddenly realise there's nothing worth staying for?
