Happy New Year

Having survived the night, the team gathered at the station this morning for a bacon roll and hot drink. (Its the only way I can confirm the team is up and functioning!)

As I turned my mobile on Portland MRCC phoned to say a local fishing boat had trawled up a piece of ordnance in his nets and a Royal Navy Bomb Disposal Team were on their way from Portsmouth. So plans had to be adjusted, bacon rolls eaten quick and the team deployed.




Kitting Up


Having been left on station to wash up I headed out to Studland (heck it was busy, nearly as busy as Bournemouth Beach in the middle of summer!), on arrival the team briefed me and we were waiting for the EOD team to confirm what they had, oh what was that .......its fallen out the net.......oh well what ever it was, its been out there for 60 plus years we will wait for it to pop up again......this will be continued.

John and Gareth took the bomb squad for breakfast at Middle Beach Cafe- any excuse for bacon sarnies.
