Samphire Hoe and the little blue train

I think it's obvious that these cliffs are just along from the white cliffs of Dover.

On our approach to Samphire Hoe, we felt sorry for the queue of stationary lorry drivers on the opposite carriageway waiting to get into the port. We estimated that it stretched for around 3 miles.
Neat shot, can't imagine having to do that queue regularly for work.

Lovely composition and detail Hazel at least you were travelling the right way this time:)

Lovely shot. Good that you were travelling in the opposite direction to the heavy traffic.

Whenever I hear the song White Cliffs of Dover I think of my Nanna. She always used to have a bit of sing song when we visited and one of her favourites was The White Cliffs of 'Clover' which she sang with gusto. Nobody ever told her that she had the words wrong and we always hid our smiles and chuckles as she sang.

A lovely composition. I can't get Vera Lynn's song out of my mind now...

You have reminded me of my nana telling us that her enemies (anemones) were coming up in the garden. ( We did not tell her either!)

@quietpurplehaze Maybe she just didn't like anemones. Believe me I have a few plants that keep coming up in my garden that I would happily call "enemies". LOL
