Wow!! Bleak is a understatement. Mission Control is holding on but the current Chine is taking a battering. I couldn't find the way to Mission Control when i was last there

Magnificent desolation (per Neil Armstrong, 1969 lunar landing). Interesting to see gorse already in flower there.

Wild sea shots would have been good

Gosh the old space mission building is now so close. Could this be the year?😢

If you accidently slipped the wind would automatically blow you back in, lol - now up to 55mph. I suspect The Needles will get a mention. It's even worse in the SW. I see there's still 'fly tipping' there. Grr.

A bit of breeze today then?

You could lean into the wind seaward. A coat surfing video to follow soon.
