Saw a small drilling rig about 3/4 mile South of the Starr Gate slipway almost next to the Sandhills. There were a couple of vans & 5 worker’s. So being a nosy sod I went & asked. I was a little surprised at the answer “we’re drilling a hole & we’re just contractor’s we don’t know what it’s for” I can’t believe that. On my way back I sac a different van & a guy got out with a distance measuring wheel so I asked him too. He said he knew but couldn’t tell me. Then as I walked further away in the distance the same workers from the rig sort of escorted a lorry about 150 metres seaward & it stopped. All rather strange, the lorry looked to have some sort of portacabin on the back. I was too far away to see exactly what it was. Anybody got any clue’s?
