Choch, I have no idea. I've never been there, I could not hazard a guess. I still think that the simple, original theory was possibly correct. JB paid, and that is why he's convinced that he is innocent. But he still hasn't told the triuth.
I've posted some photos of the sea wall at Goldhanger on the site here, shonapugs.
Although the path as it is now is nothing like the treacherous path of the 1980s as extensive 'elf and safety improvements have been made to comply with EU law: widening the path, ironing out the 'speed bump' grass clumps, taking out the large stones, filling in the foot deep hollows. Yet the path is still treacherous and a death trap at night in pitch blackness.
If someone can tell me how to post a scanned photograph here I can post a photo of how that path looked in the 1980s prior to the improvements. When I try to post scanned pictures I get a message telling me that I can't post that sort of file. Why is that and what can I do to overcome it?
