"I've looked at things from both sides now" sang Joni Mitchell. Well, I have actually seen DD from both sides. I went on a Paddle Steamer ride from Weymouth and photographed the historic arch from the sea side. If you go to Weymouth, take a coastal trip. It's fantastic. Cheers B xx. PS I expect you can get Dorset Blue Vinney/Vinny from your local Waitrose? (Assuming you are not of course adverse/allergic to blue cheese.) Dorset Knobs on the other hand only come from Dorset. (Hard little round crunchy spheres like 'bread-sticks'.) Cherie,

Our youngest grandchildren visited Lulworth Cove and Durdle Door last year and really enjoyed the area … I've not visited for some years, I really must get back again soon. Have a lovely weekend, I hope the weather will be good. All the best Jan Wonderful photographs you’ve shared, thank-you.

We didn't get to Dorchester. It was on our list but the day we planned to visit it was raining there and sunny elsewhere. We opted for the sunny option. We hope to go back to Dorset and hopefully Dorchester. HaHa I had not seen durdle door in that way until you mentioned it.

Nature always reclaims industrial wasteland when it is no longer used and fallen into decay. The coastline is spectacular.
