I love that part of the world, and with the added bonus of the wonderful Isle of Purbeck golf course!
I've heard the ferry queue can be horrendous in summer though, with waits of well over an hour

Off topic I know but it drives me nuts when I see this. We have a 'new' village centre with 3 disabled spaces outside a mid-sized supermarket. They are always taken - and never by people with disabled badges.
These people are however invariably fat, lazy, rude, driving pieces of junk, and have no common decency.
...which is why I have started taking photo's and emailing them to the council.
Call me Victor..... (my wife does !!)

Then Morrons try and defend the actions of parking in a disabled bay with personal comments.
I could go on about the problems we have due to abled bodied people parking in a disabled bay but it would be wasted on people like these. May be we should restart what Hitler used to do and terminate disable people and then they would not have a problem.
Disabled people do not choose to be so and they still deserve a chance at life, if that means disabled parking bays are required to make things a little easier, the least abled bodied people can do is respect their needs. If they have problems with this then I really do feel sorry for them. Because we use a whellchair it has not stopped us from making the most of life, we have got up mountains and toured Europe on the back of a motorbike, yes we had to be lifted on and off but we did not use the disablity as an excuse not to do it.
From my experience of this website Motorcyclist are far more friendly and helpful than what we have experience here. Unfortunately we can no longer ride a motorcycle that is why we bought a Silverstone S2000 5 years ago

Bad day Lee ?
and I had a wasted morning after getting said public transport
then I got wet walking from the train station to the office
and sometime soon I am going to have to walk back to the train station......
On the plus side I was on the train by my own doing and not because the Maser has broken down.
Am I going to hell ? If so do they sell lager ?
