      Can I watch that online without a telly Scrunge ? Or shall I go sit under the cliff shouting in a Scots accent?

      Pic 1 in post #1 is East Beach and East Cliff, West Bay (taken from the East Pier of the harbour, the other one to the west was called West Pier but it may now be re-named Jurassic Pier after re-building?).

      Charmouth is further west, here's a few shots taken last year:


      From the beach car park looking towards Stonebarrow on left with Golden Cap in the distance (West Bay is beyond that).

      Footbridge over the River Char (a favourite spot for duck feeding).

      From across the River Char, looking towards the fossil shop and beach car park.

        Thanks for the info Scrunge. Never been to West Bay, but it's a wonderful coastline along there.

          Online booking starts tommorow!

          Join Sun+ for a month's free trial, book your holiday online tommorow, then cancel subscription. Parkdean West Bay is a good site, went there 4 times last year, and always at least twice s year for the 15 years

            Explain you'll need 3 weeks to do it properly, take a 4 night break in Dorset and carry a week over to next year to do it then. Take a 3 month subscription for £9.99, book the break and get a £20 Tesco gift card http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepag...s_Exact_PPC-the_sun_holidays_dates&pc=DigAcq1

            1 to 4, 15 to 19 Jun and 29 Jun to 2 Jul look like good dates for some early morning/evening fishing forays.
